the cross-coupling reactions with arylethers via C-O bond activation have attracted broad interest. However, the functionalizations of C-O bonds are mainly limited to nickel catalysis, and selectivity has long been a prominent challenge when several C-O bonds are present in the one molecule. We report here the first chromium-catalyzed selective cross-coupling reactions of arylethers with Grignard reagents
作为一种环境友好的合成工具,通过 CO 键活化与芳基醚的交叉偶联反应引起了广泛的兴趣。然而,CO 键的功能化主要限于镍催化,当一个分子中存在多个 CO 键时,选择性一直是一个突出的挑战。我们在这里报告了第一个铬催化的芳基醚与格氏试剂通过 CO(烷基)键断裂的选择性交叉偶联反应。在室温下使用简单、廉价的铬 (II) 预催化剂结合亚氨基助剂实现了多种转化。它为高效和选择性地构建官能化芳香醛提供了新途径。
