Mild Palladium-Catalyzed Cyanation of (Hetero)aryl Halides and Triflates in Aqueous Media
نویسندگان
چکیده
A mild, efficient, and low-temperature palladium-catalyzed cyanation of (hetero)aryl halides and triflates is reported. Previous palladium-catalyzed cyanations of (hetero)aryl halides have required higher temperatures to achieve good catalytic activity. This current reaction allows the cyanation of a general scope of (hetero)aryl halides and triflates at 2-5 mol % catalyst loadings with temperatures ranging from rt to 40 °C. This mild method was applied to the synthesis of lersivirine, a reverse transcriptase inhibitor.

A general, practical palladium-catalyzed cyanation of (hetero)aryl chlorides and bromides.
Playing it safe: The nontoxic cyanide source K4 [Fe(CN)6]·3H2O can be used for the cyanation of (hetero)aryl halides. The application of palladacycle catalysts prevents poisoning during catalyst formation, thereby allowing for low catalyst loadings, fast reaction times, and wide heterocyclic substrate scope.
متن کاملPalladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl bromides promoted by low-level organotin compounds.
A novel method for palladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl bromides promoted by low-level tri-n-butyltin chloride or cyanide is described. The method features low catalyst loading and mild reaction conditions. KCN is used as the cyanide source. Only trace levels of the tri-n-butyltin compound are required to achieve high conversion and yield in the cyanation of aryl bromides, iodides, and triflates.

A palladium-catalyzed difluoromethylthiolation of heteroaryl halides and triflates under mild conditions was described. A vast range of heteroaryl halides such as pyridyl, quinolinyl, benzothiazolyl, thiophenyl, carbazolyl and pyazolyl halides could be difluoromethylthiolated efficiently, thus providing medicinal chemists with new tools for their search of new lead compounds for drug discovery....
