Aminomethylpyridinequinones as new ligands for PEPPSI-type complexes

A set of six new catalysts possessing quinone moieties in a pyridine ligand was synthesized and fully characterized by standard analytical techniques, including X-Ray crystallography. The results obtained in Suzuki and Mizoroki–Heck cross-coupling reactions catalyzed by quinone-based compounds were comparable to these obtained in the presence of the original PEPPSI complex designed by Organ. DFT calculations allow to see the structural and electronic factors to describe their similarity. On the other hand, steric maps and NCI plots were the tools to have a more global view of the systems studied, leaving the sphere of reactivity around the metal.

The Rational Design and Synthesis of Water-Soluble Thiourea Ligands for Recoverable Pd-Catalyzed Aerobic Aqueous Suzuki-Miyaura Reactions at Room Temperature

Eight precatalysts containing carboxylic-functionalized thiourea ligands are prepared and their activities and recyclability are evaluated in aerobic aqueous Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. A bulky monothiourea-Pd complex, functionalized with four carboxylic groups, shows the best activity and recyclability in the coupling of aryl bromides with arylboronic acids. The catalyst can be reused at least five times without any significant reduction in its catalytic activity. TEM analysis and the confirmed catalytic activity of the observed black precipitate reveal that Pd nanoparticles are formed during the reactions and are stabilized by the carboxylic-functionalized thiourea ligands.

Dual gold and photoredox catalysed C-H activation of arenes for aryl-aryl cross couplings

A mild and fully catalytic aryl-aryl cross coupling via gold-catalysed C-H activation has been achieved by merging gold and photoredox catalysis. The procedure is free of stoichiometric oxidants and additives, which were previously required in gold-catalysed C-H activation reactions. Exploiting dual gold and photoredox catalysis confers regioselectivity via the crucial gold-catalysed C-H activation step, which is not present in the unselective photocatalysis-only counterpart.

An efficient water-soluble surfactant-type palladium catalyst for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions in pure water at room temperature

A palladium catalyst based on a bidentate phosphine-type zwitterionic surfactant as a ligand exhibited an excellent catalytic activity in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions. This novel method allowed the reaction of aryl halides with arylboronic acids to occur in pure water at room temperature, forming a variety of biaryls in good to high yields. Heterobiaryls were also efficiently assembled even in the presence of water-insoluble heteroaryl halides as substrates. In addition, such a coupling protocol was successfully used in the iterative diarylation of 2,5-dibromopyridine in one-pot.

Palladium-catalyzed, ligand-free Suzuki reaction in water using aryl fluorosulfates

Aryl fluorosulfates were prepared by a simple method and employed as coupling partners in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. The cross-coupling reactions were performed in water under air at room temperature without ligands or additives such as surfactants or phase-transfer reagents and proceeded smoothly to give excellent yields. Aryl fluorosulfates could also be used as alternatives to halides or triflates in other coupling reactions.

Organoaluminum-Mediated Direct Cross-Coupling Reactions

We present a direct cross-coupling reaction between arylaluminum compounds (ArAlMe2·LiCl) and organic halides RX (R=aryl, alkenyl, alkynyl; X=I, Br, and Cl) without any external catalyst. The reaction takes place smoothly, simply upon heating, thereby enabling the efficient and chemo-/stereoselective formation of biaryl, alkene, and alkyne coupling products with broad functional group compatibility.

Mono- and dinuclear pincer nickel catalyzed activation and transformation of C-Cl, C-N, and C-O bonds

Condensation of 2-NH2C6H4P(Et)Ph (2) with pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde generated 2-(C4H4N-2′-CH - N)C6H4P(Et)Ph (3). Treatment of 3 with NaH and followed by (DME)NiX2 (X = Cl, Br) afforded mononuclear pincer nickel complexes [Ni{2-(C4H3N-2′-CH - N)C6H4P(Et)Ph}X] (4a, X = Cl; 4b, X = Br). Reaction of [2-NH2C6H4P(Ph)]2(CH2)n (5a, n = 3; 5b, n = 4) with pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde or 5-tert-butyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde formed [2-(C4H4N-2′-CH - N)C6H4P(Ph)]2(CH2)n (6a, n = 3; 6b, n = 4) and [2-(5′-tBuC4H3N-2′-CH - N)C6H4P(Ph)]2(CH2)4 (6c). Respective treatment of 6a-c with NaH followed by (DME)NiX2 (X = Cl, Br) gave the dinuclear nickel complexes [Ni{2-(5′-RC4H2N-2′-CH - N)C6H4P(Ph)}X]2(CH2)n (7a, R = H, X = Cl, n = 3; 7b, R = H, X = Cl, n = 4; 7c, R = H, X = Br, n = 4; 7d, R = tBu, X = Cl, n = 4). Catalysis of the complexes for the activation and transformation of C-Cl, C-N, and C-O bonds was evaluated. Complex 7c exhibited excellent catalytic activity in the cross-coupling of aryl chlorides or aryltrimethylammonium iodides with arylzinc reagents as well as of aryl sulfamates with aryl Grignard reagents. The dinuclear nickel complexes 7b-d showed higher catalytic activity than the mononuclear complexes in each type of reaction.

P,N,N-Pincer nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl fluorides and chlorides

P,N,N-Pincer nickel complexes [Ni(Cl){N(2-R2PC6H 4)(2′-Me2NC6H4)}] (R = Ph, 3a; R = Pri, 3b; R = Cy, 3c) were synthesized and their catalysis toward the Kumada or Negishi cross-coupling reaction of aryl fluorides and chlorides was evaluated. Complex 3a effectively catalyzes the cross-coupling of (hetero)aryl fluorides with aryl Grignard reagents at room temperature. Complex 3a also catalyzes the cross-coupling of (hetero)aryl chlorides and arylzinc reagents at 80 °C with low catalyst loadings and good functional group compatibility. the Partner Organisations 2014.

Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Unactivated Aryl Sulfides with Arylzinc Reagents under Mild Conditions

Cross-coupling of general aryl alkyl sulfides with arylzinc reagents proceeds smoothly, even at room temperature or below, with a palladium-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyst. When combined with reactions that are unique to organosulfurs, that is, the SNAr sulfanylation or Pummerer reaction, the cross-coupling offers interesting transformations that are otherwise difficult to achieve. An alkylsulfanyl group is preferentially converted whilst leaving the tosyloxy and chloro intact, which expands the variety of orthogonal cross-coupling.

Cross-coupling of aryltrimethylammonium iodides with arylzinc reagents catalyzed by amido pincer nickel complexes

The cross-coupling reaction of aryltrimethylammonium iodides with aryl- or heteroarylzinc chlorides catalyzed by amido pincer nickel complexes was performed. The reaction requires low catalyst loading and displays broad substrate scope.
