Abstract
The Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of Sb-aryl-1,5-azastibocines with alkenes are described. The reactions of azastibocines with alkenes such as vinyl ketones, alkenes, and acrylates in the presence of 10 mol% PdCl2 at 80 °C in DMA under aerobic conditions produced Heck adducts in moderate-to-excellent yields. Single-crystal X-ray and NMR analysis revealed that the aryl donors in this reaction, the Sb-aryl-1,5-azastibocines, are hypervalent compounds that display N–Sb intramolecular non-bonding interaction. These are the first examples of Pd-catalyzed Heck-type arylations using heterocyclic hypervalent organoantimony compounds. Although the reactions proceeded efficiently with the azastibocines, they hardly progressed with trivalent and pentavalent triarylantimony reagents.
