A protocol for the synthesis of substituted 1,10-phenanthrolines is reported. The phenanthroline scaffold has been obtained constructing the central cycle starting from two pyridine rings. The method is hinged upon the intramolecular coupling of cis-1,2-di(2-bromo-3-pyridyl)ethenes that are in turn obtained from the Wittig reaction of 2-bromonicotinaldehydes with phosphonium salts prepared from 2-bromo-3-(bromomethyl)pyridines. Yields up to 75% have been obtained.
Efficient and fast Heck vinylation of 2-bromo-6-methyl pyridines with methylacrylate. Application to the synthesis of 6-methyl cyclopenta[b]pyridinone
Heck vinylation of 2-bromo-6-methyl-3-substituted pyridines using η3-allylpalladium chloride dimer/P(o-Tol)3 complex/toluene and dimethylacetamide (DMA) as co-solvent with methyl acrylate is reported. Electronic and steric effects were investigated engaging diversely 2-bromo-3,6-disubstituted pyridines. As application, a new synthesis of the 6-methyl cyclopenta[b]pyridinone building-block connecting Heck vinylation, alkene reduction and Dieckmann condensation is described.
