Published: April 2019

In this study, we explored Heck- and Suzuki-coupling methodology to modify the template 2,5-di--butylhydroquinone (BHQ, ), an inhibitor of the enzyme sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA). We found that by utilizing Suzuki coupling, we could successfully attach a six-carbon tether to BHQ that terminated in a leucine moiety to obtain target . Similar to related compounds based on the structure of the natural product thapsigargin, displayed inhibitory potency against SERCA activity. This makes a suitable candidate for the future attachment of a deactivating peptide to convey specificity for prostate cancer cells.

We present a tandem aza-Heck/Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of -phenyl hydroxamic ethers with readily available arylboronic and alkenyl boronic acids. This protocol is enabled by a palladium catalyst paired with chiral phosphoramidite ligands, particularly under mild reaction conditions, yielding efficient and succinct synthetic routes to chiral isoindolinones with high enantioselectivity. Furthermore, this reaction exhibits excellent functional group compatibility and a rich diversity of subsequent transformations.

A novel generation of 7-aryl phenothiazinyl substituted polyacetylenes is readily accessible controlled rhodium-catalyzed polymerization of the corresponding 3-ethynyl 7-aryl phenothiazines. The monomers are synthesized by Suzuki coupling, Heck coupling, or Buchwald-Hartwig amination, and Bestmann-Ohira reaction. This allows for the introduction of electron donating and releasing substituents with different ligation patterns.

Palladium-Catalyzed Dearomative Heck/Suzuki Coupling of C2-Deuterated or C2-Nonsubstituted Indoles.

College of Chemical Engineering, State Key Laboratory Breeding Base of Green-Chemical Synthesis Technology, Zhejiang University of Technology, Chaowang Road 18#, Hangzhou 310014, China.

A palladium-catalyzed dearomative diarylation of C2-deuterated or C2-nonsubstituted indoles through domino Heck/Suzuki coupling is established. Relying on electron-deficient phosphite ligand, side reactions including intermolecular Suzuki coupling and intramolecular C-D/H arylation are inhibited and a wide range of 2,3-diarylated indolines bearing vicinal tertiary stereocenters including deuterated ones are afforded in moderate to excellent yields (up to 94%) and excellent diastereoselectivities (>20:1). The catalyst loading can be lowered to 0.

Department of Chemistry, Fudan University, 2005 Songhu Road, Shanghai, 200433, China.

ConspectusPalladium catalysis, as one of the most important strategies in asymmetric synthesis, has continuously attracted the attention of organic chemists. With the development of chiral ligands, increasingly challenging reactions and substantial progress in asymmetric catalysis are being realized.Since 2014, we have focused on exploiting a series of sulfinamide phosphine ligands called "Sadphos," including Ming-Phos, Xu-Phos, Xiao-Phos, Xiang-Phos, TY-Phos, PC-Phos, GF-Phos, and WJ-Phos.
