The Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reactions are widely used to form carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-nitrogen (C-N) bonds, respectively. We report the incorporation of a formal nitrene insertion process into the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction, altering the products from C-C-linked biaryls to C-N-C-linked diaryl amines and thereby joining the Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig coupling pathways to the same starting-material classes. A combination of a bulky ancillary phosphine ligand on palladium and a commercially available amination reagent enables efficient reactivity across aryl halides and pseudohalides, boronic acids and esters, and many functional groups and heterocycles. Mechanistic insights reveal flexibility on the order of bond-forming events, suggesting potential for expansion of the aminative cross-coupling concept to encompass diverse nucleophiles and electrophiles as well as four-component variants.

7-Azaindoles are compounds of considerable medicinal interest. During development of the structure-activity relationship for inhibitors of the colony stimulated factor 1 receptor tyrosine kinase (CSF1R), a specific 2-aryl-1-pyrrolo[2,3-]pyridin-4-amine was needed. Two different synthetic strategies were evaluated, in which the order of the key C-C and C-N cross-coupling steps differed.

The chemical reaction yield is an important factor to determine the reaction conditions. Recently, many data-driven models for yield prediction using high-throughput experimentation datasets have been reported. In this study, we propose a neural network architecture based on the chemical graphs of the reaction components to predict the reaction yield.

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are becoming a promising and revolutionary advancement within the photovoltaic field globally. Continuous improvement in efficiency, straightforward processing methods, and use of lightweight and cost-effective materials represent superior features, among other notable aspects. Still, long-term stability and durability are issues to address to facilitate widespread commercial adoption and practical application prospects.

In the past eight years, the selective cross-coupling of amides by N-C(O) bond activation has emerged as a highly attractive manifold for the manipulation of traditionally unreactive amide bonds. In this Special Issue on Next-Generation Cross-Coupling Chemistry, we report the Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling of amides by selective N-C(O) cleavage catalyzed by bench-stable, well-defined carboxylate Pd(II)-NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) catalysts {[(NHC)Pd(OCR)]}. This class of Pd(II)-NHCs promotes cross-coupling under exceedingly mild room-temperature conditions owing to the facile dissociation of the carboxylate ligands to form the active complex.

Pd-PEPPSI complexes of -(4-indolyl)-'-phenylimidazol-2-ylidene (IIn) ligands with a 5-isopropyl-4-indolyl moiety are synthesized and evaluated in heteroarene C-H arylation, Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, and Buchwald-Hartwig amination reactions. The IIn-Pd complex bearing a 3,5-diisopropyl-4-indolyl substituent () exhibits the best catalytic activity in this series and substantially outperforms commercial precatalyst PEPPSI-Pd-IPr. The results also suggest that the alkyl group at position 3 of the 4-indolyl moiety shows stronger impacts than that at position 5.
