A simple protocol for the Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of 1-benzoyl-(2S)-isopropyl-5-iodo-2,3-dihydro-4(H)-pyrimidin-4-ones with potassium aryltrifluoroborates was developed. The reaction is performed at 110°C with a ligand-free catalyst. In all cases, complete conversion of the 1-benzoyl-(2S)-isopropyl-5-iodo-2,3-dihydro-4(H)-pyrimidin-4-onesand aryltrifluoroborates into the C-C coupling products was observed within 30-360 min. It is noteworthy that a largevariety of groups present in the potassium aryltrifluoroborates (-CF3, -OMe, -SEt, -CN, -CHO, -Cl, -Cbz, -NCbz,-OH, -CO2H) could be tolerated. Hydrogenation of the endocyclic double bonds in the Suzuki-Miyaura products followed by acid hydrolysis afforded highly enantioenrichedα-aryl-substituted β-amino acids. We present a general approach for the synthesis of (2S)-isopropyl-5-aryl-2,3- dihydro-4(H)-pyrimidin-4-ones by Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of aryltrifluoroborate salts with(2S)-isopropyl-5-iodo-2,3-dihydro-4(H)-pyrimidin-4-ones in the presence of a palladium catalyst and a base. The arylated compounds were transformed into enantioenriched α-aryl-substituted β-amino acids. Copyright
