, p. 650 - 654 (2017/12/26)
The Suzuki-Miyaura (SM) cross-coupling is the most broadly utilized Pd-catalyzed C-C bond-forming reaction in the chemical industry. A large proportion of SM couplings employ dipolar aprotic solvents; however, current sustainability initiatives and increasingly stringent regulations advocate the use of alternatives that exhibit more desirable properties. Here we describe the scope and utility of the bio-derived solvent Cyrene in SM cross-couplings and evaluate its suitability as a reaction medium for this benchmark transformation from discovery to gram scale.

Page/Page column 119, (2010/10/20)
The present invention relates to novel compounds, in particular novel pyridinone derivat ives according to Formula (I) X R1 N Y (I) R2 R3 wherein all radicals are defined in the application. The compounds according to the invention are positive allosteric modulators of metabotropic receptors-subt ype 2 ("mGluR2") which are useful for the treatment or prevention of neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with glutamate dysfunction and diseases in which the mGluR2 subtype of metabotropic receptors is involved. In particular, such diseases are central nervous system disorders selected from the group of anxiety, schizophrenia, migraine, depression, and epilepsy. The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions and processes to prepare such compounds and compositions, as well as to the use of such compounds for the prevention and treatment of such diseases in which mGluR2 is involved.
