[reaction: see text] The Heck reaction of phenyl halides with styrene using a series of related PCP pincer palladium(II) complexes was studied in order to evaluate the effect of ligand structure and electronics on the catalytic activity and to investigate the nature of the catalyst species. We suggest these pincer complexes are precatalysts for highly active forms of metallic palladium. This conclusion is based on kinetic studies (induction periods, sigmoidal kinetics), Hg drop tests, quantitative poisoning experiments, and NMR studies.

Enantioselective Heck/Tsuji-Trost reaction of flexible vinylic halides with 1,3-dienes.

The enantioselective domino Heck/cross-coupling has emerged as a powerful tool in modern chemical synthesis for decades. Despite significant progress in relative rigid skeleton substrates, the implementation of asymmetric Heck/cross-coupling cascades of highly flexible haloalkene substrates remains a challenging and and long-standing goal. Here we report an efficient asymmetric domino Heck/Tsuji-Trost reaction of highly flexible vinylic halides with 1,3-dienes enabled by palladium catalysis.

The Heck reaction is one of the most well-known C-C (carbon-carbon) coupling reactions and was identified with the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2010. These reactions have been broadly utilized to prepare a different spectrum of heterocycles with applications in agrochemical and pharmaceutical industries. These reactions are commonly catalyzed by palladium due to its tolerance and expansive variousness of functional groups, which bears a remarkable power in creating C-C bonds.

Asymmetric Heck Silylation of Unactivated Alkenes.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, 310058, China.

Heck silylation of unactivated alkenes is an efficient strategy for the synthesis of useful organosilicon compounds. However, extensive efforts have been dedicated to only achieving achiral molecules. Herein, a highly regio- and enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed Heck silylation of unactivated alkenes with hydrosilanes is reported for the first time, providing access to axially chiral alkenes in good to excellent yields with 87-98 % ee.
