Usage

General Description

1,2-diisopropylbenzene, also known as cumene, is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. It is primarily used as a precursor to produce acetone and phenol, which are important chemicals in the manufacturing of various plastics, resins, and adhesives. Cumene is also used as a solvent and as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. It is flammable and can be harmful if inhaled, ingested, or in contact with skin. Proper handling and storage procedures should be followed to minimize the risk of exposure and accidents.

Efficient cross-coupling of aryl/alkenyl triflates with acyclic secondary alkylboronic acids

Aryl-secondary alkyl cross-coupling with aryl sulfonate esters as coupling partners remains a significant challenge. Efficient cross-coupling between aryl/alkenyl triflates and acyclic secondary alkylboronic acids is realized for the first time to provide a series of sterically congested acyclic secondary alkyl arenes/olefins in good to excellent yields. The employment of sterically bulky P,PO ligand L1/L2 is crucial for the high yields and selectivities. The method has enabled a concise and 4-step synthesis of a key intermediate of male contraceptive agent and PAF antagonist gossypol.
