Palladium Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Axially Chiral Biaryls Palladium Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Axially Chiral Biaryls THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By William D. Andert Graduate Program in Chemistry The Ohio State University 2013 Master's Examination Committee: Professor T. V. RajanBabu, Advisor Professor Jon R. Parquette Copyright by William D. Andert 2013 ABSTRACT Cross-coupling reactions have been of interest to organic chemists much of the past century. It has only been in the last half century that prominent advances have been discovered, all of which take advantage of organometallic chemistry. The most widely explored reactions use palladium or nickel complexes to promote the cross-coupling of a wide variety of functionalized aryl groups. One such reaction is the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, which is a transition-metal mediated coupling of an organohalide and an organoborane. As a carbon-carbon bond forming reaction, the Suzuki-Miyaura cross- coupling has great potential in synthetic applications due to its mild conditions and functional group tolerance. An important aspect of the reaction is the ability to impart specific configurations during the formation of new carbon-carbon bonds. Such selectivity has been thoroughly explored in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of sp2-sp2 carbon-carbon bonds with the retention of E or Z stereochemistry. However, the formation of axially chiral biaryls still presents an ongoing challenge. Biaryls containing at least three substituents ortho to the aryl-aryl bond exhibit atropisomerism, which gives rise to axial chirality. Thus, the application of asymmetric catalysis to the formation of axial chiral biaryls was of interest. The work presented in this thesis investigates the synthesis of several chiral ligands for use in cross-coupling reactions and a study of the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of biaryls. ii DEDICATION Dedicated to my parents Tom and Sandy Andert iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, I would like to thank my advisor Dr. T.

  • Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry
    Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry Palladium catalysis has gained widespread use in industrial and academic synthetic chemistry laboratories as a powerful methodology for the formation of C-C and C-Heteroatom bonds. Several coupling reactions have been developed with different substrates: 1. SUZUKI-MIYAURA 2. STILLE 3. NEGISHI 4. KUMADA 5. HIYAMA 6. SONOGASHIRA 7. HECK 8. BUCHWALD-HARTWIG 9. CYANATION 10. CARBONYLATION 2 Understanding the catalytic cycle Most palladium catalysed reactions are believed to follow a similar catalytic cycle. The catalytic species can be formed in situ using a palladium source, such as Pd2(dba)3 or Pd(OAc)2 and the necessary ligand, or introduced as a preformed catalyst such as t Pd(PPh3)4 or Pd(P Bu3)2. Careful choice of ligand can facilitate two steps of the catalytic cycle. The use of strong σ-donating ligands, such as trialkylphosphines, increases electron density around the metal, accelerating the oxidative addition of the catalyst to the substrate. This is most commonly believed to be the rate determining step. Choice of ligand also determines the mechanism by which oxidative addition occurs.1 The elimination step is accelerated by the use of bulky ligands, in particular phosphine ligands exhibiting a large cone angle (also known as Tolman angle).2 Ligand Cone Angle (deg) Cat.

ABSTRACT Over the past 20 years, small molecule solid phase synthesis has become a powerful tool in the discovery of novel mol- ecular materials. In the development of organic chemistry, the carbon-carbon bond formation has always been one of the most useful and fundamental reaction. The current review summarizes recent developments in metal-catalyzed cou- pling reactions. The following method is discussed in detail—the cross-coupling of aryl halides with aryl boronic acids (the Suzuki coupling), and the others C-C bond formation reactions as the palladium-catalyzed reaction between an aryl and (or) alkyl halide and a vinyl functionality (the Heck reaction); and the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of organostannyl reagents with a variety of organic electrophiles (the Stille reaction)—are mentioned.

To better control the regioselectivity in these reactions, some functional groups on the sub- strate may be used as directing groups, guiding the reactivity to an ortho position. Herein, we describe a methodology to score the relative strength of such directing groups in palladium-catalyzed aromatic CÀH activation. The results have been collected into a scale that serves to predict the regio- selectivity on molecules with multiple competing directing groups. We demonstrate that this scale yields accurate predictions on over a hundred examples, taken from the literature. In addition to the regioselectivity prediction on complex molecules, the knowledge of the relative strengths of directing groups can also be used to work with new combinations of functionalities, exploring un- charted chemical space.

  • Pharmacomodulation of Positions Two & Four of Nucleus Five
    Al Saadi et al (2019): Pharmacomodulation using palladium catalyze November 2019 Vol. 22(7) Pharmacomodulation of positions two & four of nucleus five-nitroimidazole by using palladium catalyze Noor Thamer Abbas Al Saadi 1* Marwah Thamer Abbas Al Saadi1, Zina Tahsin Ali1 1. College of pharmacy, Almuthanna University *Corresponding Author: Dr. Noor Thamer Abbas Al Saadi, College of pharmacy, Almuthanna University Email: [email protected] Abstract: Cross-coupling reactions consist of reactions between an electrophilic organic species such as a halide or a pseudohalide (triflate, tosylate, mesylate) (R1-X) and an organometallic reagent (R2-M; M = Mg, Li, Cu, Zn, Al, B and Si). These reactions are catalyzed by a metal transition complex based on nickel or palladium, and result in the formation of new CClO.sub.2 bonds. Many cross-coupling reactions have thus been developed in about twenty years, by varying the nature of the electrophile, organometallic reagent and transition metal (Scheme 1). The most commonly used coupling reactions involve palladium as a transition metal, and the diversity of these reactions is based on the type of organometallic used, based on aluminum, zinc or zirconium (Negishi coupling), [1] boron (Suzuki coupling), [2] magnesium (Kumada coupling), [3] tin (Stille coupling) , [4] or silicon (coupling of Hiyama) .[5] The development of this type of reaction allowed Richard Heck, Ei-ichi Negishi and Akira Suzuki to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2010.[1].

It is shown that the initial steps of this reaction are the active catalyst formation and the first C–Cl bond activation proceeds via the “base-assisted oxidative addition” mechanism. Overall, these steps of the reaction proceed via 16.2 kcal/mol free energy barrier for the C–Cl bond activation and are highly exergonic. Importantly, the base directly participates in the C–Cl bond cleavage introduces a mechanistic switch of the Pd(0)/Pd(II) oxidation and makes the reaction more exergonic. The following steps of the reaction are palladacycle and Pd-aryne formations, among which the palladacycle formation is found to be favorable: it proceeds with a moderate C–H activation barrier and is slightly exergonic. Although the Pd-aryne formation requires a slightly lower energy barrier, it is highly endergonic: therefore, the participation of the Pd-aryne complex, or its derivatives, in the Pd- catalyzed annulative chlorophenylene dimerization in the presence of Cs2CO3 seems to be unlikely.

  • Pd-Pincer Complexes Containing Six-Membered Rings That Are More Active Allylation Catalysts Than Five-Membered Ring Analogues
    Pd-pincer complexes containing six-membered rings that are more active allylation catalysts than five-membered ring analogues Dan E. Wise,a Natalie E. Pridmore,a Paul G. Pringlea aSchool of Chemistry, University of Bristol, Cantock’s Close, Bristol, BS8 1TS, U.K. Abstract A series of symmetric and non-symmetric PCP-pincer complexes have been prepared and an evaluation of their activity in catalytic allylic alkylation carried out. The X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy data suggest that metallacycles containing one (or two) 6-membered rings are inherently more rigid than initially anticipated. The observed catalyst activity is found to increase as the metallacycle size increases from 5 to 6. Introduction Since the pioneering work on cyclometalated phosphine pincer complexes by Shaw et al. and amine pincer complexes by van Koten et al. in the 1970s, chemists have exploited the tunability of pincer complexes to develop many thousands of variants.1,2 The rich chemistry of pincer complexes is attributed to the many points of derivatisation present, such as the donor atoms and substituents, backbone structure, metal centre, and ancillary ligands. The applications of transition metal pincer complexes in catalysis have been extensively reviewed.3–7 Most pincer complexes are derived from C2v symmetric ligands which give rise to complexes with two fused 5-membered metallacycles (i.e. 5,5-metallacycles).3 Less well studied are pincer complexes with fused 6-membered metallacycles (i.e. 6,6-metallacycles).8–10 Pincer complexes containing 6-membered metallacycles have a larger P-M-P bite angle and would be anticipated to be more conformationally flexible.

The catalyst was highly effective for the chain-growth polymerization of a 3-alkylthiophene monomer using a Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling. The catalyst is particularly effective for this polymerization in the presence of excess free ligand. The unsymmetrical diphosphine nickel complex reported here represents a new approach to tuning metal-ligand reactivity in the chain-growth polymerization of aromatic monomers. In addition, this new nickel catalyst exhibited increased hydrolytic resistance in the polymerization as compared to 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: commercially available 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane nickel dichloride.

Kostas Received: 15 March 2017; Accepted: 25 April 2017; Published: 9 May 2017 Abstract: Carbon–carbon cross-coupling reactions are among the most important processes in organic chemistry and Suzuki–Miyaura reactions are the most widely used protocols. For a decade, green chemistry and particularly catalysis and continuous flow, have shown immense potential in achieving the goals of “greener synthesis”. To date, it seems difficult to conceive the chemistry of the 21st century without the industrialization of continuous flow process in the area of pharmaceuticals, drugs, agrochemicals, polymers, etc. A large variety of palladium Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reactions have been developed using a continuous flow sequence for preparing the desired biaryl derivatives. Our objective is to focus this review on the continuous flow Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling using homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts. Keywords: palladium; continuous flow; Suzuki–Miyaura; cross-coupling 1. Introduction Among the main reactions in organic chemistry, C–C bond formation via a cross-coupling reaction catalyzed by transition metals is undoubtedly the most important and has been exploited very widely in the recent years.
