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.
Synthesis of 4-nitrophenyl sulfones and application in the modified Julia olefination

4-Nitrophenyl (NP) sulfones have been successfully employed in the modified Julia olefination reaction with carbonyl compounds. The olefination reaction proceeds through a sequence of aldol addition, Smiles rearrangement, and elimination. The sulfones are easily prepared in high yields in a two-step sequence starting from inexpensive commercially available para- fluoronitrobenzenes via nucleophilic aromatic substitution by a mercaptane and subsequent oxidation under standard conditions. The modified Julia reaction between NP sulfones and a wide variety of aromatic aldehydes affords the corresponding styrenes, stilbenes and cinnamate derivatives in yields up to 97% and good stereoselectivities. A mechanistic rationale is advanced to explain the observed results. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
