—M with an aromatic or heteroaromatic substrate Ar—X catalyzed by one or several iron salts or iron complexes as catalysts or pre-catalysts, present homogeneously or heterogeneously in the reaction mixture. This new invention exhibits substantial advantages over established cross coupling methodology using palladium- or nickel complexes as the catalysts. Most notable aspects are the fact that (i) expensive and/or toxic nobel metal catalysts are replaced by cheap, stable, commercially available and toxicologically benign iron salts or iron complexes as the catalysts or pre-catalysts, (ii) commercially attractive aryl chlorides as well as various aryl sulfonates can be used as starting materials, (iii) the reaction can be performed under “ligand-free” conditons, and (iv) the reaction times are usually very short.
and -CF(3) groups are compatible. The method also allows for consecutive cross-coupling processes in one pot, as exemplified by the efficient preparation of compound 12, and has been applied to the first synthesis of the cytotoxic marine natural product montipyridine 8. In contrast to the clean reaction of (hetero)aryl chlorides, the corresponding bromides and iodides are prone to a reduction of their

Methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl esters of six alkanesulfonic acids and five p-substituted benzenesulfonic acids were synthesized and their alkylating abilities were evaluated in terms of the chemoselectivity toward 4-(p-nitrobenzyl) pyridine (NBP) in phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) containing 60% acetone. The chemoselectivity constant toward NBP, SNBP, was defined as the logarithm of the ratio of the molar fraction of an alkylating sulfonate which is consumed for alkylation of NBP versus the molar fraction of the residual alkylating agent which is hydrolyzed in the buffer medium. It was found that SNBP was not only markedly dependent on the structure of the alkyl moiety of the molecule, but also appreciably dependent on the electronic nature of the leaving sulfonic acid moiety. The structure-chemoselectivity relationship is discussed.
