Murahashi Cross-Coupling at ?78 °C: A One-Pot Procedure for Sequential C?C/C?C, C?C/C?N, and C?C/C?S Cross-Coupling of Bromo-Chloro-Arenes

The coupling of organolithium reagents, including strongly hindered examples, at cryogenic temperatures (as low as ?78 °C) has been achieved with high-reactivity Pd-NHC catalysts. A temperature-dependent chemoselectivity trigger has been developed for the selective coupling of aryl bromides in the presence of chlorides. Building on this, a one-pot, sequential coupling strategy is presented for the rapid construction of advanced building blocks. Importantly, one-shot addition of alkyllithium compounds to Pd cross-coupling reactions has been achieved, eliminating the need for slow addition by syringe pump.

PROCESS FOR HALOGENATION OF BENZENE AND BENZENE DERIVATIVES

In a process of halogenation of benzene or benzene derivatives, di-substituted halobenzene derivatives having para-aromatic compounds or tri-substituted halobenzene derivatives having 1,2,4-substituted aromatic compounds are selectively produced. In halogenation of benzene or benzene derivatives, a fluorine-containing zeolite catalyst such as L-type zeolite, or a zeolite catalyst having the crystal size of at most 100 nm is used. The reaction is preferably effected in the presence of a solvent, and the solvent is preferably a halogenated compound.
