Recyclable heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling under CO gas-free conditions

A convenient, efficient and practical heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling of aryl iodides with terminal alkynes under CO gas-free conditions has been developed by using an MCM-41-supported bidentate phosphine palladium acetate complex as catalyst. Here, formic acid was used as the CO source with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) as the activator and a wide variety of alkynyl ketones were generated in moderate to high yields. This heterogeneous palladium catalyst can be easily recovered via a simple filtration process and recycled up to 8 times without apparent loss of activity.

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling of aryl diazonium salts with formic acid as the CO source: the effect of 1,3-butadiene

An efficient carbonylative cross-coupling of aryl diazonium salts with terminal alkynes using formic acid as the CO source has been developed. And 1,3-butadiene was found to play a crucial role in this transformation.

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling between aryl triazenes and alkynes.

We developed a palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira reaction with aryl triazenes and alkynes as substrates and methanesulfonic acid as the additive. A series of α,β-ynones were synthesized by this alternative procedure. Notably, bromides, iodides and hydroxyl groups could be well-tolerated under these reaction conditions.

Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Sonogashira Coupling of Aryl Bromides Using Near Stoichiometric Carbon Monoxide

A general procedure for the palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling of aryl bromides is reported, using near stoichiometric amounts of carbon monoxide. The method allows a broad substrate scope in moderate to excellent yields. The formed alkynone motive serves as a platform for synthesis of various heterocyclic structures, including pyrimidines. Furthermore, the presented strategy allows effective (13)C labeling.

Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Sonogashira Coupling of Aryl Bromides via tert-Butyl Isocyanide Insertion

A simple and efficient palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling via tert-butyl isocyanide insertion has been developed, which demonstrates the utility of isocyanides in intermolecular C-C bond construction. This methodology provides a novel pathway for the synthesis of alkynyl imines which can undergo simple silica gel catalyzed hydrolysis to afford alkynones. The approach is tolerant of a wide range of substrates and applicable to library synthesis.

Cross-linked polymer supported palladium catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling reaction in water

A cross-linked polymer-supported ionic liquid immobilized palladium catalyst, which is prepared by reaction of the Pd(OAc)2 with copolymer of 3-butyl-1-vinylimidazolium iodide and divinylbenzene, was well characterized and employed as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for carbonylative Sonogashira coupling reaction of aryl iodides with terminal alkynes in water, affording the corresponding α,β-alkynyl ketones in good to excellent yields. The catalytic system not only solves the basic problem of homogeneous palladium catalyst recovery and reuse but also avoids the use of toxic phosphine ligands. The stability of supported palladium was also discussed.

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylative coupling of benzyl chlorides with terminal alkynes to give 1,4-diaryl-3-butyn-2-ones and related furanones

A general palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira coupling of benzyl chlorides with terminal acetylenes has been established. Depending on the alkyne 1,4-diaryl-3-butyn-2-ones or substituted furanones are obtained in moderate to good yields. Best catalytic performance is achieved applying a mixed Pd(PPh(3))Cl(2)/P(OPh)(3) catalyst system.
