Abstract

Regioselective arylation in the 4-position in pyridines results from 1:1-adduct formation between an aryltriisopropoxytitanium reagent and N-isobutyloxycarbonyl- or an N-silyloxymethyl-3-cyanopyridinium salt after successive DDQ dehydrogenation and cleavage of the 1-substituent. Complete regioselectivity for new CC bond formation in the 4-position results in the adduct formation between aryl- and phenylethynyltri-isopropoxytitanium reagents and pyrimidin-2(1 H)-ones; with ethynyltriisopropoxytitanium the new CC bond formation occurs at the 6-position.
