Organotrifluoroborates have emerged as an alternative to toxic and air- and moisture-sensitive organometallic species for the synthesis of functionalized aryl and heteroaryl compounds. It has been shown that the trifluoroborate moiety can be easily converted into a variety of different substituents in a late synthetic stage. In this paper, we disclose a mild, selective, and convenient method for the ipso-nitrosation of organotrifluoroborates using nitrosonium tetrafluoroborate (NOBF4). Aryl- and heteroaryltrifluoroborates were converted into the corresponding nitroso products in good to excellent yields. This method proved to be tolerant of a broad range of functional groups.
Nitropyridines: X.* Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of 2-bromo-5-nitropyridine with terminal acetylenes

Substituted 5-nitro-2-ethynylpyridines were synthesized by the Sonogashira reaction of 2-bromo-5-5-nitropyridine with terminal acetylenes. Desilylation, oxidative decarbonylation, and the retro-Favorskii reaction of the cross-coupling products of 2-bromo-5-nitropyridine with trimethylsilylacetylene, prop-2-ynyl alcohol, and 2-methylbut-3-yn-2-ol, respectively, gave 2-ethynyl-5-nitropyridine. The hydration of 2-ethynyl-5-nitropyridine and 5-nitro-2-(phenylethynyl)pyridine according to Kucherov afforded 2-acetyl-5-nitropyridine and 5-nitro-2-phenacylpyridine, respectively.

The Synthesis of the High-Potency Sweetener, NC-00637. Part 2: Preparation of the Pyridine Moiety

The pyridine moiety within the high-potency sweetener, NC-00637 (1), 5-amino-2-cyanopyridine (4), was prepared from 2-hydroxy-5-nitropyridine (10). The sequence involved the conversion of the hydroxy group to bromide followed by substitution with cyanide to give 2-cyano-5-nitropyridine (8). Reduction of the nitro group proved to be troublesome when catalytic hydrogenation was used. Iron with an acid gave a reproducible reaction that could be used at scale.
