Bimetallic Cooperative Catalysis for Decarbonylative Heteroarylation of Carboxylic Acids via C-O/C-H Coupling

Cooperative bimetallic catalysis is a fundamental approach in modern synthetic chemistry. We report bimetallic cooperative catalysis for the direct decarbonylative heteroarylation of ubiquitous carboxylic acids via acyl C-O/C-H coupling. This novel catalytic system exploits the cooperative action of a copper catalyst and a palladium catalyst in decarbonylation, which enables highly chemoselective synthesis of important heterobiaryl motifs through the coupling of carboxylic acids with heteroarenes in the absence of prefunctionalization or directing groups. This cooperative decarbonylative method uses common carboxylic acids and shows a remarkably broad substrate scope (>70 examples), including late-stage modification of pharmaceuticals and streamlined synthesis of bioactive agents. Extensive mechanistic and computational studies were conducted to gain insight into the mechanism of the reaction. The key step involves intersection of the two catalytic cycles via transmetallation of the copper–aryl species with the palladium(II) intermediate generated by oxidative addition/decarbonylation.

Palladium-catalyzed aryl-aryl cross-coupling reaction using ortho-substituted arylindium reagents

(Chemical Equation Presented) A range of biaryl compounds (aryl-aryl, aryl-heteroaryl, and heteroaryl-heteroaryl) can be efficiently prepared by a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between ortho-substituted triarylindium reagents and aryl halide

α1-Adrenoceptor agonists: The identification of novel α1A subtype selective 2′-heteroaryl-2-(phenoxymethyl)imidazolines

Novel 2′-heteroaryl-2-(phenoxymethyl)imidazolines have been identified as potent agonists of the cloned human α1-adrenoceptors in vitro. The nature of the 2′-heteroaryl group can have significant effects on the potency, efficacy, and subtype selectivity in this series. α1A Subtype selective agonists have been identified.

Preparation of 2- and 5-aryl substituted thiazoles via palladium-catalyzed Negishi cross-coupling

2-Aryl substituted thiazoles 3a-k were prepared by oxidative insertion of zinc into 2-bromothiazole (1) followed by palladium(0)-catalyzed Negishi cross-coupling in a one-pot procedure. 5-Aryl substituted thiazoles 6a-i were prepared by regioselective C-5 lithiation of 2-(trimethylsilyl)thiazole (4) followed by transmetalation with zinc chloride and palladium(0)-catalyzed Negishi cross-coupling in a one-pot procedure. The synthetic sequences were combined to give 2,5-diaryl substituted thiazoles 8a,b and 10 via stepwise C-2 and C-5 arylation and vice versa.
