Abstract
This paper describes an efficient preparation of 2-azulenylboronate ( 6 ) starting from 2-iodoazulene by halogen–metal exchange reaction using n -BuLi and subsequent quenching with 2-isopropoxy-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane. The boronate 6 has been found to undergo Pd-catalyzed Miyaura-Suzuki cross-coupling reaction with a range of aryl bromides including aromatic poly bromides utilizing Pd 2 (dba) 3 –P( t -Bu) 3 as a catalyst and establishes a strategy to produce novel poly(2-azulenyl)benzenes, some of which are found to be insoluble in common organic solvents, however. The redox behavior of 2-arylazulenes and poly(2-azulenyl)benzenes was examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and compared with those of 6-azulenylbenzene derivatives reported previously. Graphic
