Catalyst-Free Synthesis of Benzofuran Derivatives from Cascade Reactions between Nitroepoxides and Salicylaldehydes

Different benzofuran derivatives are synthesized via a catalyst-free reaction between nitroepoxides and salicylaldehydes. In the employed methodology, K2CO3 and DMF have been used at 110 °C, and the reactions were completed after 12 h in 33-84% yields. Th

Nickel-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl Chlorides with Amides

A nickel-catalyzed amination of aryl chlorides with diverse amides via C-N bond cleavage has been realized under mild conditions. A broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance at a low catalyst loading makes the protocol powerful for synthesizing various aromatic amines. The aryl chlorides could selectively couple to the amino fragments rather than the carbonyl moieties of amides. Our protocol complements the conventional amination of aryl chlorides and expands the usage of inactive amides.

Acid-promoted selective synthesis of trifluoromethylselenolated benzofurans with Se-(trifluoromethyl) 4-methylbenzenesulfonoselenoate

A Br?nsted acid-promoted trifluoromethylselenolation of benzofurans was disclosed by using Se-(trifluoromethyl) 4-methylbenzenesulfonoselenoate as a stable and easily prepared electrophilic trifluoromethylselenolating reagent. A wide range of SeCF3-substituted benzofuran derivatives were obtained in moderate to good yields with excellent regioselectivity. The tandem cyclization/trifluoromethylselenolation procedure of 1-methoxy-2-(arylethynyl)benzenes were also realized by engaging FeCl3 as the catalyst.

Regioselective Direct C2 Arylation of Indole, Benzothiophene and Benzofuran: Utilization of Reusable Pd NPs and NHC-Pd@MNPs Catalyst for C–H Activation Reaction

Abstract: A regioselective C2 arylation of indoles, benzothiophene and benzofuran without directing group has been accomplished using economically cheap Pd NPs and NHC-Pd@MNPs catalyst. The reusable catalyst is efficiently employed to access C2 arylated heterocycles in good to excellent yield. The reusability of the catalyst is studied up to five cycles and a gram-scale synthesis has been achieved. The reaction mechanism is well supported by control experiments and literature precedents.

Room Temperature C-H Arylation of Benzofurans by Aryl Iodides

A robust method of room temperature direct arylation for benzofuran is reported. This discovery allows for mild arylation by commercially available aryl iodides with complete C-2 regioselectivity and tolerates a range of functional groups, including heat sensitive groups. Mechanistically, a Heck-type oxyarylation product from a direct arylation process is reported as a key piece of evidence for a carbopalladation intermediate.

Direct Arylations of Heteroarenes with Benzenesulfonyl Chlorides Using Pd/C Catalyst

The reactivity of heteroaromatics in direct arylation with benzenesulfonyl chlorides using 10 % Pd/C as catalyst was explored. With (benzo)thiophenes, (benzo)furans, pyrroles and selenophenes, high yields in arylated heteroarenes were obtained. These arylations were performed using only 5 mol-% Pd/C and Li2CO3 as inexpensive base. The regioselectivities are similar to those observed with homogeneous palladium catalysts. Better yields were obtained with electron-deficient benzenesulfonyl chlorides than with the electron-rich ones. Notably, useful substituents such as bromo or iodo on the benzenesulfonyl chloride were tolerated, as no cleavage of the C–Br or C–I bonds was observed under these conditions. The use of Pd/C presents several advantages compared to the previously employed homogeneous palladium catalysts, as it can be easily removed by filtration at the end of the reaction. The major side-products of the reaction are HBr associated to Li2CO3. Therefore, this new protocol affords a very attractive synthetic scheme in terms of cost, simplicity and low environmental impact for the access to arylated heteroaromatics.

The said palladium diamino carbine complex of the present invention are particularly useful as catalyst from Hiyama cross-coupling reaction.

Transition-Metal-Free Synthesis of Heterobiaryls through 1,2-Migration of Boronate Complex

The synthesis of a diverse range of heterobiaryls has been achieved by a transition-metal-free sp2–sp2 cross-coupling strategy using lithiated heterocycle, aryl or heteroaryl boronic ester and an electrophilic halogen source. The construction of heterobiaryls was carried out through electrophilic activation of the aryl–heteroaryl boronate complex, which triggered 1,2-migration from boron to the carbon atom. Subsequent oxidation of the intermediate boronic ester afforded heterobiaryls in good yield. A comprehensive 11B NMR study has been conducted to support the mechanism. The cross coupling between two nucleophilic cross coupling partners without transition metals reveals a reliable manifold to procure heterobiaryls in good yields. Various heterocycles like furan, thiophene, benzofuran, benzothiophene, and indole are well tolerated. Finally, we have successfully demonstrated the gram scale synthesis of the intermediates for an anticancer drug and OLED material using our methodology.
