Palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids with aryl tosylates

We report a general method for selective cross-coupling of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids with aryl tosylates enabled by versatile Pd(II) complexes. This method features the general cross-coupling of ubiquitous α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids by decarboxylation. The transformation is characterized by its operational simplicity, the use of inexpensive, air-stable Pd(II) catalysts, scalability and wide substrate scope. The reaction proceeds with high trans selectivity to furnish valuable (E)-1,2-diarylethenes.

Stereospecific Iron-Catalyzed Carbon(sp2)-Carbon(sp3) Cross-Coupling with Alkyllithium and Alkenyl Iodides

An efficient synthetic protocol involving iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions between organolithium compounds and alkenyl iodides as key coupling partners was achieved. More than 30 examples were obtained with moderate to good yields and high stereospecificity. Gram-scale and synthetic applications of this procedure are recorded herein to demonstrate its feasibility and potential utilization.

Single electron transfer-induced cross-coupling reaction of alkenyl halides with aryl Grignard reagents

Alkenyl halides were found to undergo coupling with aryl Grignard reagents to give the corresponding styrene derivatives in a stereo-retained manner. The cross-coupling reaction is considered to proceed through a single electron transfer mechanism.

Selective catalytic C-H alkylation of alkenes with alcohols

Alkenes and alcohols are among the most abundant and commonly used organic feedstock in industrial processes. We report a selective catalytic alkylation reaction of alkenes with alcohols that forms a carbon-carbon bond between vinyl carbon-hydrogen (C-H) and carbon-hydroxy centers with the concomitant loss of water. The cationic ruthenium complex [(C6H6)(PCy 3)(CO)RuH]+BF4- (Cy, cyclohexyl) catalyzes the alkylation in solution within 2 to 8 hours at temperatures ranging from 75° to 110°C and tolerates a broad range of substrate functionality, including amines and carbonyls. Preliminary mechanistic studies are inconsistent with Friedel-Crafts-type electrophilic activation of the alcohols, suggesting instead a vinyl C-H activation pathway with opposite electronic polarization.

The first example of hydrozirconation of alkynes in room temperature ionic liquids

Hydrozirconation of terminal alkynes in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim][PF6]) at 30 °C gave highly regio- and stereoselectively (E)-vinylzirconium complexes, which underwent a cross-coupling reaction with aryl halides in the presence of Pd(PPh 3)4 to afford (E)-1,2-disubstituted ethenes in good to high yields. Our system not only avoids the use of easily volatile THF or CH2Cl2 as solvent but also solves the basic problem of palladium catalyst reuse.

Palladium-tetraphosphine catalysed heck reaction with simple alkenes: Influence of reaction conditions on the migration of the double bond

The Heck reaction of aryl halides with simple alk-1-enes is a powerful method for the synthesis of (E)-1-arylalk-1-ene derivatives. The major problem of this reaction is the palladium-catalysed migration of the carbon-carbon double bond along the alkyl ch

Catalytic activity of Pd(II) and Pd(II)/DAB-R systems for the Heck arylation of olefins

Palladium-catalyzed reactions of aryl bromides with various olefins involving Pd(II)/diazabutadiene (DAB-R) systems have been investigated. The scope of a coupling process using Pd(II) sources and an α-diimine as ligand in the presence of Cs2CO3 as base was tested using various substrates. The Pd(OAc)2/ DAB-Cy (1, DAB-Cy=1,4-dicyclohexyl-diazabutadiene) system presents the highest activity with respect to electron-neutral and electron-deficient aryl bromides in coupling with electron rich olefins. The synthesis and X-ray characterization of a Pd(II)-diazabutadiene ligand is reported. Extensive optimization experiments showed that another Pd(II) source, Pd(acac)2 (acac=acetylacetonate), proved to activate aryl bromides at high temperatures, low catalyst loadings when the appropriate concentration of nBu4NBr additive was employed. The effect of the DAB-Cy ligand is important at very low catalyst loadings and high temperatures. Pd(acac)2 and Pd(acac)2 /DAB-Cy precatalysts were very effective for the arylation of various olefins with aryl bromides with respect to reaction rate, catalyst loadings, and functional group tolerance.

Triethylborane-mediated hydrogallation and hydroindation: Novel access to organogalliums and organoindiums

Hydrogallation of carbon-carbon multiple bonds proceeds in the presence of triethylborane as a radical initiator. Several functionalities do not interfere with this reaction. Resulting alkenyl- and alkylgallium species can be trapped by several electrophiles. Highly regioselective radical addition of an indium hydride reagent to alkynes is also achieved. Various functionalities are tolerant under the reaction conditions. The reaction proceeds with complete anti stereoselectivity. Alkenylindiums obtained via hydroindation can be employed for the following cross-coupling reaction with aryl halides in one pot.

Silicone as a new class of organosilicon reagent for the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction

Silicone, polyorganosiloxane, serves as an organosilicon reagent for palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Treatment of polymethylphenylsiloxane, poly(alkenyl)methylsiloxane, or cyclic oligosiloxanes with various aryl iodides in the presence of silver(I) oxide or tetrabutylammonium fluoride and a catalytic amount of Pd(0) affords the corresponding coupling product in a good to excellent yield.
