- Heterocyclic Allylsulfones as Latent Heteroaryl Nucleophiles in Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions
-
Heterocyclic sulfinates are effective reagents in palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions with aryl and heteroaryl halides, often providing high yields of the targeted biaryl. However, the preparation and purification of complex heterocylic sulfinates can be problematic. In addition, sulfinate functionality is not tolerant of the majority of synthetic transformations, making these reagents unsuitable for multistep elaboration. Herein, we show that heterocyclic allylsulfones can function as latent sulfinate reagents and, when treated with a Pd(0) catalyst and an aryl halide, undergo deallylation, followed by efficient desulfinylative cross-coupling. A broad range of allyl heteroarylsulfones are conveniently prepared, using several complementary routes, and are shown to be effective coupling partners with a variety of aryl and heteroaryl halides. We demonstrate that the allylsulfone functional group can tolerate a range of standard synthetic transformations, including orthogonal C- and N-coupling reactions, allowing multistep elaboration. The allylsulfones are successfully coupled with a variety of medicinally relevant substrates, demonstrating their applicability in demanding cross-coupling transformations. In addition, pharmaceutical agents crizotinib and etoricoxib were prepared using allyl heteroaryl sulfone coupling partners, further demonstrating the utility of these new reagents.

- Pd-Catalyzed Suzuki coupling reactions of aryl halides containing basic nitrogen centers with arylboronic acids in water in the absence of added base
-
The Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reactions of a series of aryl chlorides and aryl bromides containing basic nitrogen centers with arylboronic acids in water in the absence of added base are reported. The reactions proceed either partially or entirely under acidic conditions. After surveying twenty-two phosphorus ligands, high yields of products were obtained with aryl chlorides only when a bulky ligand, 2-(di-tert-butyl-phosphino)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrrole (cataCXiumPtB) was used. In contrast, aryl bromides produced high yields of products in the absence of both added base and added ligand. In order to explore the Suzuki coupling process entirely under acidic conditions, a series of reactions were conducted in buffered acidic media using several model substrates. 4-Chlorobenzylamine, in the presence of cataCXiumPtB, produced high yields of product at buffered pH 6.0; the yields dropped off precipitously at buffered pH 5.0 and lower. The fall-off in yield was attributed to the decomposition of the Pd-ligand complex due to the protonation of the ligand in the more acidic aqueous media. In contrast, in the absence of an added ligand, 4-amino-2-chloropyridine produced quantitative yields at buffered pH 3.5 and 4.5 while 4-amino-2-bromopyridine produced quantitative yields in a series of buffered media ranging from pH 4.5 to 1.5. These substrates are only partially protonated in acidic media and can behave as active Pd ligands in the Suzuki catalytic cycle.

- Structure-activity relationship study of E6 as a novel necroptosis inducer
-
Necroptosis inducers represent a promising potential treatment for drug-resistant cancer. We herein describe the structure modification of E6, which was identified recently as a potent and selective necroptosis inducer. The studies described herein demonstrate for the first time that functionalized biphenyl derivatives possess necroptosis inducer activity. Furthermore, these studies have led to the identification of two promising compounds (5h and 5j) that can be used for further optimization studies as well as mechanism of action investigations.

- Copper-promoted sandmeyer trifluoromethylation reaction
-
A copper-promoted trifluoromethylation reaction of aromatic amines is described. This transformation proceeds smoothly under mild conditions and exhibits good tolerance of many synthetically relevant functional groups. It provides an alternative approach for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated arenes and heteroarenes. It also constitutes a new example of the Sandmeyer reaction.
