Continuous flow Sonogashira C-C coupling using a heterogeneous palladium-copper dual reactor

We report the development of a heterogeneous catalyst system on continuous flow chemistry. A palladium (Pd) coated tubular reactor was placed in line with copper (Cu) tubing using a continuous flow platform, and a Sonogashira C-C coupling reaction was used to evaluate the performance. The reactions were favorably carried out in the Cu reactor, catalyzed by the traces of leached Pd from the Pd reactor. The leached Pd and Cu were trapped with a metal scavaging resin at the back-end of the continuous flow system, affording a genuine approach toward green chemistry.

Tandem suzuki-miyaura cross-coupling/dehydrobromination of 1,1-dibromoalkenes to alkynes with a cyclobutene-1,2-diylbis(imidazolium) salt as catalyst precursor

A cyclobutene-1,2-bis(imidazolium) salt proved to be an efficient catalyst precursor for one-pot tandem Suzuki-Miyaura/dehydrobromination reactions for the synthesis of alkynes starting from 1,1-dibromoalkenes and palladium(II) acetate, aryl boronic acids, and potassium tert-butoxide in toluene. Starting materials were prepared from aldehydes under Corey-Fuchs conditions. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart New York.

Acyclic diaminocarbenes: Simple, versatile ligands for cross-coupling reactions

Acyclic diaminocarbenes are found to be useful ligands for palladium catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura, Sonogashira and Heck cross-coupling reactions of aryl/alkenyl bromides and chlorides. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2006.

Aqueous-phase, palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl bromides under mild conditions, using water-soluble, sterically demanding alkylphosphines

Sterically demanding, water-soluble alkylphosphines have been used in combination with various palladium salts in Suzuki, Sonogashira, and Heck couplings of aryl bromides under mild conditions in aqueous solvents. The tert-butyl-substituted ligands 2-(di-tert-butylphosphino)ethyltrimethylammonium chloride (t-Bu-Amphos) and 4-(di-tert-butylphosphino)-N,N-dimethylpiperidinium chloride (t-Bu-Pip-phos) in combination with palladium(II) salts were found to give catalysts that were significantly more active than catalysts derived from tri(3-sulfonatophenyl)phosphine trisodium (TPPTS). Suzuki couplings of unactivated aryl bromides occurred efficiently at room temperature in water/acetonitrile and water/toluene biphasic mixtures or in neat water. Notably, Suzuki couplings of hydrophilic aryl bromides gave high yields without using organic solvents for the reaction or purification. This methodology has been applied to a highly efficient synthesis of diflunisal. The catalyst derived from t-Bu-Amphos was recycled three times in Suzuki couplings in water/toluene before catalyst activity began to significantly drop. The average yield of four cycles was >80% per cycle. Heck and Sonogashira couplings were carried out under mild conditions (50 and 80°C, respectively) with unactivated aryl bromides to give coupled products in high yield.
