- C?H Cyanation of 6-Ring N-Containing Heteroaromatics
-
Heteroaromatic nitriles are important compounds in drug discovery, both for their prevalence in the clinic and due to the diverse range of transformations they can undergo. As such, efficient and reliable methods to access them have the potential for far-reaching impact across synthetic chemistry and the biomedical sciences. Herein, we report an approach to heteroaromatic C?H cyanation through triflic anhydride activation, nucleophilic addition of cyanide, followed by elimination of trifluoromethanesulfinate to regenerate the cyanated heteroaromatic ring. This one-pot protocol is simple to perform, is applicable to a broad range of decorated 6-ring N-containing heterocycles, and has been shown to be suitable for late-stage functionalization of complex drug-like architectures.

- Silver-Catalyzed Minisci Reactions Using Selectfluor as a Mild Oxidant
-
A new method for silver-catalyzed Minisci reactions using Selectfluor as a mild oxidant is reported. Heteroarenes and quinones both participate in radical C-H alkylation and arylation from a variety of carboxylic and boronic acid radical precursors. Several oxidatively sensitive and highly reactive radical species are successful, providing structures that are challenging to access by other means.

- Scope and limitation for FeSO4-mediated direct arylation of heteroarenes with arylboronic acids and its synthetic applications
-
FeSO4-mediated direct arylation of heteroarenes with arylboronic acids in the presence of K2S2O8 has been developed. A slow addition of an aqueous solution of an iron complex was crucial in the arylation. Scope and limitation of the heteroarenes and arylboronic acids are discussed. Furthermore, the direct arylation was applied to the formal total synthesis botryllazine B and sodium channel inhibitor.

- Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of functionalized aryl- and heteroarylbismuthanes with 2-halo(or 2-Triflyl)azines and -diazines
-
The palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of highly functionalized organobismuthanes with 2-halo(or 2-triflyl)pyridines, -pyrimidines, -pyrazines, and -pyridazines is reported. The reaction tolerates numerous functional groups, including aldehydes. The synthesis of a shelf-stable (formylphenyl)bismuth reagent and its use in a cross-coupling reaction is also described.
