Triorganoindium reagents (R3In) react with tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs) in the presence of Ph3CBF4 as an oxidant to afford 1-substituted THIQs. The reaction proceeds in good yields at rt using 50 mol % R3In with a variety of organic groups. 1H NMR studies show the generation of an iminium ion intermediate, supporting a two-step mechanism based on THIQ oxidation and R3In nucleophilic addition. This reaction was applied to the synthesis of the alkaloid nuciferine in three steps.
A phosphine-free, atom-efficient cross-coupling of aryl iodides with triarylindiums or trialkynylindiums catalyzed by immobilization of palladium(0) in MCM-41

The first phosphine-free heterogeneous atom-efficient cross-coupling reaction of aryl iodides with triarylindiums or trialkynylindiums was achieved in THF at 68 °C by using 1 mol% of MCM-41-immobilized palladium(0)-Schiff base complex [MCM-41-N,N-Pd(0)] as catalyst, yielding a variety of unsymmetrical biaryls and arylalkynes in good to excellent yields. The heterogeneous palladium(0) catalyst could easily be prepared via a simple procedure from commercially readily available reagents, and recovered by filtration of the reaction solution and recycled at least 10 times without significant loss of activity.

The synthesis and photochemical study of novel nonsymmetrical 1,2-dithienylethenes (DTEs) with a maleimide bridge have been carried out. The synthetic approach to the DTEs was based on successive selective palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of 5-susbtituted-2-methyl-3-thiophenyl indium reagents with 3,4-dichloromaleimides. The required organoindium reagents were prepared from 2-methyl-3,5-dibromothiophene by a selective (C-5) coupling reaction with triorganoindium compounds (R3In) and subsequent metal-halogen exchange. The coupling reactions usually gave good yields and have a high atom economy with substoichiometric amounts of R3In. The results of photochemical studies show that these novel dithienylmaleimides undergo a photocyclization reaction upon irradiation in the UV region and a photocycloreversion after excitation in the visible region, thus they can be used as photochemical switches. ON-OFF operations can be repeated in successive cycles without appreciable loss of effectiveness in the process.
