The developed methodology requires low catalyst loading of Bedford-type 42 palladacycle catalyst (0.05 mol %) and works best under mild reaction conditions at 40 °C in 43 44 short time of 6 hours in water. In addition, our studies show that for Miyaura borylation using 45 BBA in aqueous condition, maintaining a neutral reaction pH is very important for 46 47 reproducibility and higher yields of corresponding borylated products. Moreover, our protocol 48 49 is applicable for a broad range of aryl halides, corresponding borylated products are obtained 50 in excellent yields up to 93% with 29 examples demonstrating its broad utility and functional 51 52 group tolerance. 53 54 55 Keywords: Miyaura-borylation, Palladacycle, Tetrahydroxydiboron, Arylboronic acids 56 57 58 59 60 ACS Paragon Plus Environment The Journal of Organic Chemistry Page 2 of 25 1 2 3 Introduction 4 Arylboronic acids provide a unique combination of stability, mild Lewis acidity, low 5 6 7 toxicity and distinct reactivity profile, therefore a tremendous interest in synthesis and 8 1 9 applications of arylboronic acids, and their corresponding intermediates exists. Notably 10 11 arylboronic acids and their corresponding esters and trifluoroborates are widely explored as a 12 13 substrate for numerous organic transformations. In last decade arylboronic acids are well 14 15 explored for various cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, the Hosomi- 16 17 Sakurai allylation2 and the oxidative Chan-Lam coupling.3 Moreover, other applications 18 19 includes 1,4-additions4 and 1,2-additions5 of boronic acids to Michael acceptors and 20 21 6 22 aldehydes, e.g. the Petasis borono-Mannich reaction . Particularly in bioorganic and 23 24 medicinal chemistry, arylboronic acids serve as valuable tool for a broad range of applications 25 26 including sensors molecules,7 enzyme inhibitors or in vivo alteration of cellular functions.8 27 28 Recently many catalytic protocols for amide or peptide synthesis have been reported using 29 30 various arylboronic acid derivatives as catalysts.9 Therefore due to their wide applications in 31 32 synthetic chemistry, as well as in biology, there are numerous methods reported for the 33 34 35 synthesis of arylboronic acids (Scheme 1). 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 Scheme 1. Metal based borylation protocols 50 51 52 Traditionally arylboronic acids were prepared by a metal-halogen exchange approach using 53 10 11 54 stoichiometric amount of organolithium or Grignard-reagents , but offers only limited 55 56 tolerance to functional groups and also generates stoichiometric amount of toxic waste 57 58 59 60 ACS Paragon Plus Environment Page 3 of 25 The Journal of Organic Chemistry 1 2 12 3 (Scheme 1, A). To address these issues several research groups, including those of Smith, 4 13 14 15 5 Hartwig, Miyaura and Marder have recently reported efficient catalytic borylation 6 7 protocols by C-H activation of aromatic compounds using iridium or rhodium catalysts, but 8 9 regioselectivity is determined by steric and electronic factors, which represents a major 10 11 drawback (Scheme 1, B). Currently, transition-metal-catalyzed Miyaura borylation of aryl 12 13 16 14 halides therefore provide the most versatile access to arylboronic acids, as it combines high 15 16 functional group tolerance and selectivity. Yet, most of these reported catalytic borylation 17 18 methods typically require the use of expensive pinacolato-boron precursors. In addition, 19 20 reaction of pinacolato-boron with aryl halide gives arylboronic ester as a product instead of 21 22 arylboronic acid, necessitating an additional deprotection step which ultimately generates 23 24 additional stoichiometric amount of waste (Scheme 1, C). In this regard Molander et al. 25 26 27 reported a palladiumcatalyzed borylation protocol, which employed economical and greener 28 29 bis-boronic acid (BBA) also known as tetrahydroxydiboron as a boron source in ethanol as a 30 31 solvent. The resulting diethyl boronic esters converted in situ into the more stable 32 33 trifluoroborates or even directly applied in cross-coupling reactions (Scheme 1, D).17 This 34 35 represents a major step towards more atom economic and sustainable synthesis of organo- 36 37 boronic acids. Thereafter many other transition metals based catalytic protocols were 38 39 reported for borylation of aryl halides.18 Recently nice progress has been made in 40 41 18b,19 18b,20 42 photoinduced borylation , as well as organo-catalytic borylation protocols. However 43 44 overall most of the reported borylation protocols requires use of toxic and environmental 45 46 hazardous organic solvents, high catalyst loading, higher temperature (reflux or >80 oC) and 47 48 longer reaction time, which limits its wide applications. Nevertheless, it would be more 49 50 economically and industrially appealing to develop a water based, greener borylation protocol 51 52 for direct synthesis of aryl boronic acids using tetrahydroxydiboron (BBA) with lowest 53 54 21 55 possible catalyst loading, in shorter time, under mild reaction conditions. Particularly 56 57 compared to toxic organic solvents, water is safe to handle, greener, economically and 58 59 60 ACS Paragon Plus Environment The Journal of Organic Chemistry Page 4 of 25 1 2 3 environmentally friendly solvent. Therefore, in the last decade there is growing interest for 4 5 water based cross-coupling reactions and many water based catalytic protocols have been 6 7 reported particularly with major contributions by Beller,22 Plenio,23 Shaughnessy,24 8 9 Leadbeater25 and Lipshutz.26 However the water based protocol under mild reaction 10 11 conditions for a Miyaura-borylation is rarely explored.
