A catalytic method for the introduction of pharmaceutically meaningful fluorinated propionic acid side chains into aromatic compounds is presented. In the presence of rhodium catalyst [RhCp*Cl], various arylboronic acids are efficiently coupled with an easy-to-access diazoester reagent to give perfluorinated derivatives of phenylpropionic acids, including top-selling profen drugs. The key advantage of this approach is that the pharmacophore is introduced as a whole and is compatible with various functionalities and drug discovery.

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.

We have developed a novel protocol for carbonylative homocoupling of arylboronic acids using dithiocarbamate esters as the carbonyl alternative. A series of arylboronic acids underwent smooth reaction with dithiocarbamate ester (MeNCSMe) in the presence of Pd(PPh)Cl catalyst, Cu(OAc)·HO additive, and NaCO in DCE solvent, producing the biaryl ketones efficiently. The mechanism has been studied with the help of several control experiments that reveal the probability of thioamide intermediacy.

6-Bromo- and 6,7-dibromo-1,3-dimethyl-1-perimidin-2(3)-ones were arylated with arylboronic acids under Suzuki-Miyaura reaction conditions to afford 6-aryl-, 6-bromo-7-aryl- and 6,7-diaryl-1,3-dimethyl-1-perimidin-2(3)-ones. A comparison of the X-ray structural parameters of -diaryl derivatives of 1,3-dimethyl-1-perimidin-2(3)-one, naphthalene and 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene (proton sponge) was performed. Based on the data of dynamic H NMR spectroscopy and quantum-chemical calculations, barriers to /-isomerization of 6,7-diaryl-1,3-dimethyl-1-perimidin-2(3)-ones were estimated.

A nickel-catalyzed intermolecular three-component 1,1-difunctionalization of unactivated alkenes with quinoxaline/naphthoquinone and arylboronic acids via organometallic-radical relay is developed. This efficient protocol provides a new method to access a variety of arylalkanes in moderate to good yields with a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. The mechanistic studies provide insights into the mechanism and origin of chemo- and regioselectivity as well as confirm the generation of functionalized benzylic radicals.
