, p. 211 - 215 (2016)
Fluorenes have been synthesized through an efficient novel Pd-catalyzed tandem cross-coupling reaction; these substrates are fascinating building blocks found in organic photoelectric materials. The position of the substituent on fluorenes could be conveniently tuned by changing the halogen in the ortho-halobenzyl bromide substrates when coupled with various arylboronic acids. This newly developed synthetic approach could achieve the potential diversity in fluorene-based molecular architectures.

, p. 1993 - 1997 (2017/08/14)
A highly efficient and operationally simple palladium-catalyzed formal [4 + 1] annulation reaction has been developed. The reaction is featured by the formation of two different C-C bonds on a carbenic center. It represents a concise method for the synthesis of a wide range of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and 1H-indenes with easily available (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane as the carbene source. Metal carbene migratory insertion and C(sp2)-H bond activation are proposed as the key steps in this transformation. The reaction further demonstrates the versatility of the carbene-based coupling in combination with various transition-metal-catalyzed transformations.

1,5-Diyne systems bearing one terminal and one benzyl- or allyl-substituted alkyne attached to an aromatic backbone were converted in the presence of a gold catalyst. In a dual gold-catalyzed process, gold vinylidenes are formed that selectively undergo formal CH insertion into the C(sp2)–H bond of the offered unsaturated systems. If H atoms are present in the propargylic position, a subsequent isomerization to the aromatic system takes place leading to 9H-fluorene and 11H-benzo[b]fluorene derivatives as final products. In the case of a quaternary carbon in the propargylic position no further aromatization is observed and 10H-benzo[b]fluorene derivatives are obtained in high yield. (Figure presented.).

The discovery of an ultrafast cross-coupling of alkyl- and aryllithium reagents with a range of aryl bromides is presented. The essential role of molecular oxygen to form the active palladium catalyst was established; palladium nanoparticles that are highly active in cross-coupling reactions with reaction times ranging from 5 s to 5 min are thus generated in situ. High selectivities were observed for a range of heterocycles and functional groups as well as for an expanded scope of organolithium reagents. The applicability of this method was showcased by the synthesis of the [11C]-labeled PET tracer celecoxib.
Au-catalyzed biaryl coupling to generate 5- to 9-membered rings: Turnover-limiting reductive elimination versus π-complexation

The intramolecular gold-catalyzed arylation of arenes by aryl-trimethylsilanes has been investigated from both mechanistic and preparative aspects. The reaction generates 5- to 9-membered rings, and of the 44 examples studied, 10 include a heteroatom (N, O). Tethering of the arene to the arylsilane provides not only a tool to probe the impact of the conformational flexibility of Ar-Au-Ar intermediates, via systematic modulation of the length of aryl-aryl linkage, but also the ability to arylate neutral and electron-poor arenes-substrates that do not react at all in the intermolecular process. Rendering the arylation intramolecular also results in phenomenologically simpler reaction kinetics, and overall these features have facilitated a detailed study of linear free energy relationships, kinetic isotope effects, and the first quantitative experimental data on the effects of aryl electron demand and conformational freedom on the rate of reductive elimination from diaryl-gold(III) species. The turnover-limiting step for the formation of a series of fluorene derivatives is sensitive to the reactivity of the arene and changes from reductive elimination to π-complexation for arenes bearing strongly electron-withdrawing substituents (σ > 0.43). Reductive elimination is accelerated by electron-donating substituents (ρ = -2.0) on one or both rings, with the individual σ-values being additive in nature. Longer and more flexible tethers between the two aryl rings result in faster reductive elimination from Ar-Au(X)-Ar and lead to the π-complexation of the arene by Ar-AuX2 becoming the turnover-limiting step.

A facile protocol for the synthesis of fluorene derivatives has been developed through palladium-catalyzed cyclization of 2′-halo-diarylmethanes via activation of arylic C-H bonds. The reactions occurred smoothly and allowed both electron-rich and electron-deficient substrates to convert into their corresponding fluorenes in good to excellent yields. Studies revealed that this Pd-catalyzed cyclization was also available for the substrates of 2′-chloro-diarylmethanes and no catalyst poisoning occurred for 2′-iodo-diphenylmethane.

A facile and efficient approach is developed for the synthesis of fluorene and its derivatives starting from 2-iodobiphenyls and CH2Br2. A range of fluorene derivatives can be synthesized under relatively mild conditions. The reaction proceeds via a tandem palladium-catalyzed dual C-C bond formation sequence through the key dibenzopalladacyclopentadiene intermediates, which are obtained from 2-iodobiphenyls through palladium-catalyzed C-H activation.
