N-heterocyclic carbene–palladium complexes for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction with benzyl chloride and aromatic boronic acid leading to diarylmethanes

A family of N-heterocyclic carbene–palladium(II)–N,N-dimethylbenzylamine complexes ((NHC)LPdCl2; L?=?N,N-dimethylbenzylamine) were synthesized as well as characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic data. These complexes exhibited higher catalytic activities for the Suzuki reaction of benzyl chlorides to afford diarylmethanes under milder conditions than other efficient (NHC)LPdCl2 complexes. Using the optimum conditions, the expected coupling products were obtained in moderate to high yields. All reactions were carried out in air and all starting materials were used as supplied without purification.

Visible-light-mediated external-reductant-free reductive cross coupling of benzylammonium salts with (hetero)aryl nitriles

Herein we report a novel visible-light-mediated external reductant-free reductive cross coupling for the construction of C sp2–C sp3 bonds. A variety of benzylammonium salts underwent selective coupling with (hetero)aryl nitriles to

Palladium-Catalyzed Hiyama Coupling of Benzylic Ammonium Salts via C-N Bond Cleavage

The first palladium-catalyzed Hiyama cross-coupling of arylsilanes with benzyltrimethylammonium salts is reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly to facilitate C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond formation via cleavage of the C-N bond and provides a useful approach to various diarylmethanes with a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance in good to excellent yields.

The Dual Role of Benzophenone in Visible-Light/Nickel Photoredox-Catalyzed C?H Arylations: Hydrogen-Atom Transfer and Energy Transfer

A dual catalytic protocol for the direct arylation of non-activated C(sp3)?H bonds has been developed. Upon photochemical excitation, the excited triplet state of a diaryl ketone photosensitizer abstracts a hydrogen atom from an aliphatic C?H bond. This inherent reactivity was exploited for the generation of benzylic radicals which subsequently enter a nickel catalytic cycle, accomplishing the benzylic arylation.

Palladium catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling of benzyltrimethylammonium salts via C-N bond cleavage

A palladium catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling for construction of Csp3-Csp2 bond via Csp3-N bond activation of benzyltrimethyl-ammonium salt is described. This reaction not only offered a highly efficient approach to diarylmethanes but also paved the way for the application of benzyltrimethylammonium salts in the palladium catalyzed cross coupling reactions.

Visible-Light-Mediated Aromatic Substitution Reactions of Cyanoarenes with 4-Alkyl-1,4-dihydropyridines through Double Carbon-Carbon Bond Cleavage

Novel aromatic substitution reactions of cyanoarenes with 4-alkyl-1,4-dihydropyridines as alkylating reagents in the presence of a catalytic amount of a photoredox catalyst proceed smoothly to give the corresponding alkyl-substituted arenes in good to high yields. The present reaction system realizes a novel C-C bond-forming reaction between two fragments generated from the C-C bond-cleavage reactions of two independent substrates.

Direct method for carbon-carbon bond formation: The functional group tolerant cobalt-catalyzed alkylation of aryl halides

(Figure Presented). A new protocol for the direct cobaltcatalyzed alkylation of aryl halides has been developed that proceeds smoothly in the presence of phosphanes or bipyridines as ligands with a variety of alkyl halides, including challenging alkyl electrophiles bearing β hydrogen atoms (see scheme). Sensitive functional groups are tolerated on both coupling partners, thus, significantly extending the general scope of transition-metal-catalyzed alkylation of aryl halides.
