Published: July 2018

The Pd-catalyzed regioselective C-H activation/arylation, /iodination, and/acetoxylation reactions of 4-arylpyrimidines using aryl iodides, N-iodosuccinimide, and (diacetoxyiodo)benzene respectively as coupling partners are described. Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and Sonogashira reactions of the resulting aryl iodides are demonstrated. The scalability of the C-H activation/functionalization starting with readily accessible 4-aryl pyrimidines is also reported.

Polymers with rigid three-dimensional architectures have attracted significant attention due to their high rigidity and intrinsic microporosity. Here, we report the synthesis of a new class of rigid stepladder polymers featuring unique spirodihydroquinoline skeletons. Under the catalysis of a half-sandwich scandium catalyst, quinoline compounds bearing both an aryl substituent (e.

Electrolysis of -alkynyl--(formyl)anilides and sodium sulfinates on graphite electrodes delivers biologically sound 3-(sulfonyl)quinol-4-ones with moderate to good yields. The reaction is carried out in an undivided cell in the presence of silver(I) oxide with potassium iodide or sodium tetrafluoroborate as the supporting electrolyte. The reaction tolerates variously substituted anilides as well as aryl and alkyl sulfinates.

The nickel catalyzed multi-component cross-electrophile carbonylation which emerges as a powerful and efficient method for constructing diverse ketones has attracted increasing attention of organic chemists. However, the selectivity of this reaction poses a significant challenge. In this work, we have developed a current-regulated selective nickel-catalyzed electroreductive cross-electrophile carbonylation, which offers a direct convergent synthesis of β/γ-hydroxy ketones, which represent pivotal structural motifs found in numerous natural products, bioactive molecules, pharmaceutical compounds, and essential building blocks.

Efficient catalytic systems for various organic transformations in green solvents, especially water, are in great demand. Catalytically active bis-NHC complexes of palladium(II) based on imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid with different lipophilicities were obtained. The synthesis of imidazolium salts was complicated by the formation of side products of nucleophilic substitution by iodide ions in the Menshutkin reaction involving alkyl iodides, which was successfully resolved by using alkyl tosylates.

A gold-catalyzed sulfonylation of aryl/vinyl iodides to synthesize aryl sulfones facilitated by the ligand-enabled Au(I)/Au(III) redox catalysis was developed. In the reaction, aryl sodium sulfinates or sulphinic acids can react smoothly with aryl/vinyl iodides to directly construct various aryl sulfones. The strong synthetic capabilities of sulfone synthesis are demonstrated by its easily available and handled reagents, good functional group compatibility, and late-stage application of complicated biomolecules.
