Abstract
AbstractThe palladium(II)‐catalyzed hydroarylation of diphenylphosphorylallenes (via 1,2‐addition of the allenic double bond) with arylboronic acids in the presence of sodium hydroxide and oxygen is developed. The regioselectivities turn out to be well controlled, affording 2‐aryl‐3‐(diphenylphosphinyl)alkenes as the only product. Moreover, the stereoselectivities for reactions of γ‐substituted allenes can also be nicely controlled, resulting in the formation of Z‐alkenes. The reaction shows high substituent loading capability and tolerance of various substituents. A mechanism, including transmetalation of arylboronic acid with palladium halides, insertion of the 1,2‐allenic double bond to the Pd−Ar bond, and protonation to afford the final hydroarylation product is proposed.magnified image
