Published: March 2015

An unprecedented palladium-catalyzed oxidative annulation of acrylamides with benzyne precursors has been successfully developed. By using this mild "N-H activation/Heck reaction" method, a wide variety of quinolinones were conveniently prepared in one step with high efficiency.

A Pd (II)-catalyzed direct C3-(sp)-H alkenylation of heteroarenes using benzothiazole as a directing group was successfully achieved. A wide range of 2--alkylpyrroles undergo an oxidative coupling with a variety of acrylates to furnish highly regio- and chemoselective E-alkenylation products at the C3 position. An important intermediate complex has been isolated and characterized so as to have an insight into the mechanism.

Palladium(ii)-catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of aliphatic olefins would enable an efficient route to (conjugated) dienes, but remains scarcely investigated. Here, 2-hydroxypyridine (2-OH-pyridine) was found to be an effective ligand for Pd(ii) in the activation of vinylic C(sp)-H bonds. While reoxidation of Pd(0) is challenging in many catalytic oxidations, one can avoid in this reaction that the reoxidation becomes rate-limiting, even under ambient O pressure, by working in coordinating solvents.

This study presents a method for synthesizing functionalized hydrodibenzofuran derivatives. Using palladium catalysis, -aryl cyclic vinylogous esters undergo dehydrogenative intramolecular arylation at the vinylic carbon. Preliminary kinetic isotope effect studies suggest that the C(aryl)-H bond cleavage may be the rate-determining step.

Article Synopsis
  • - Two new nonbenzenoid polycyclic hydrocarbons (PHs) with one or two dicyclohepta--indacene (DCHI) units were created using a method called palladium-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization.
  • - The DCHI structures cause the compounds to adopt highly twisted shapes, which affect their aromatic characteristics and optoelectronic properties.
  • - These properties include lower energy gaps, absorption of light in longer wavelengths, and the ability to undergo multiple reversible oxidation reactions, highlighting the significance of nonbenzenoid structures in these materials.

Stereoselective Synthesis of 1,n-Dicarbonyl Compounds Through Palladium-Catalyzed Ring Opening/Isomerization of Densely Substituted Cyclopropanols.

We report a highly diastereoselective protocol for the synthesis of 1,4- and 1,5-dicarbonyl compounds from densely substituted cyclopropanols. The methodology involves a palladium-catalyzed ring opening reaction followed by a "metal-walk" and oxidation of a remote hydroxyl group. The methodology represents a new application of cyclopropanols as initiation sites for chain walking remote functionalization.
