Concatenating Suzuki Arylation and Buchwald-Hartwig Amination by A Sequentially Pd-Catalyzed One-Pot Process-Consecutive Three-Component Synthesis of C,N-Diarylated Heterocycles.

Abstract

The concatenation of Suzuki coupling and Buchwald‐Hartwig amination in a consecutive multicomponent reaction opens a concise, modular and efficient one‐pot approach to diversely functionalized heterocycles, as exemplified for 3,10‐diaryl 10H‐phenothiazines, 3,9‐diaryl 9H‐carbazoles, and 1,5‐diaryl 1H‐indoles, in high yields starting from simple staring materials. Moreover, this one‐pot reaction is a sequentially palladium‐catalyzed process that does not require additional catalyst loading after the first coupling step.
