A methyl group can have a profound impact on the pharmacological properties of organic molecules. Hence, developing methylation methods and methylating reagents is essential in medicinal chemistry. We report a palladium-catalyzed dimethylation reaction of ortho-substituted iodoarenes using dimethyl carbonate as a methyl source. In the presence of K2CO3 as a base, iodoarenes are dimethylated at the ipso- and meta-positions of the iodo group, which represents a novel strategy for meta-C-H methylation. With KOAc as the base, subsequent oxidative C(sp3)-H/C(sp3)-H coupling occurs; in this case, the overall transformation achieves triple C-H activation to form three new C-C bonds. These reactions allow expedient access to 2,6-dimethylated phenols, 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans, and indanes, which are ubiquitous structural motifs and essential synthetic intermediates of biologically and pharmacologically active compounds.
PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF PHENOL DERIVATIVES SUBSTITUTED WITH IODINE AT ORTHO POSITION

Page/Page column 6, (2010/07/06)
A process in which a phenol derivative is iodinated to produce a 2-iodophenol or 2,6-diiodophenol derivative substituted with iodine at an ortho position thereof is provided, which does not require any step of recovery of iodine but can produce it at low cost, in high yield and with high quality. A phenol derivative is mixed with a pyridine and hydrogen peroxide or iodic acid as an oxidizing agent, and reacted with molecular iodine. As a result, iodination can be performed very efficiently with iodine in an amount close to the theoretical amount relative to the phenol derivative, and the 2-iodophenol or 2,6-diiodophenol derivative can be obtained in high yield and with high quality.

Starting from ROPA (2), analogues of RTX (1a) modified on the acyl side chain were prepared and evaluated for vanilloid activity in HEK-293 cells over-expressing the human recombinant TRPV1. The ROPA motif provided an enhancement of potency sufficient to
