Published: September 2008

The palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of triorganoindium reagents (R3In) with 5-bromo-2-chloropyrimidine proceeds chemoselectively, in good yields, to give 5-substituted-2-chloropyrimidines or 2,5-disubstituted pyrimidines using 40 or 100 mol % of R3In, respectively. Sequential cross-couplings are also performed, in one pot, using two different R3In. This method was used to achieve the first synthesis of the alkaloid hyrtinadine A. The key step was a two-fold cross-coupling reaction between a tri(3-indolyl)indium reagent and 5-bromo-2-chloropyrimidine.

The emergence of RNA viruses driven by global population growth and international trade highlights the urgent need for effective antiviral agents that can inhibit viral replication. Nucleoside analogs, which mimic natural nucleotides, have shown promise in targeting RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRps). Starting from protected 5-iodouridine, we report the synthesis of -substituted-(1,3-diyne)-uridines nucleosides and their phosphoramidate prodrugs.

In recent years, there has been growing interest in the development of greener alternatives to traditional reagents used in carbon-carbon coupling reactions, particularly in response to environmental concerns. The commonly used aryl halides, despite being highly reactive in the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling (SMC), pose significant environmental risks. As a result, research has shifted towards exploring the use of phenols, which are widely accessible and environmentally benign.

Isochroman and azole moieties are both present in a wide variety of biologically active molecules. Their efficient combination under mild reaction conditions is beneficial for obtaining small-molecule drug candidates. In this paper, we describe electrochemical α-C(sp)-H/N-H cross-coupling reactions between isochromans and azoles, yielding products in moderate to excellent yields.

The enantioselective synthesis of P(V)-stereogenic compounds has emerged as an interesting research topic primarily due to their significant biological activity and broad application prospects. Herein, we disclose a method for the construction of P(V)-stereogenic compounds from prochiral phosphinamides and aryl iodides via palladium- and chiral norbornene-catalyzed desymmetric annulation. The P(V)-stereogenic compounds were formed with a broad scope with excellent enantiomeric excesses.
