A novel and efficient palladium-based homogeneous catalyst was fabricated and used as a robust catalyst in Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling and Heck reactions. 2-Amino-N(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)benzamide was introduced as a versatile ligand for palladiumcatalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The desired active and stable homogeneous Pd catalyst was prepared via the coordination of Pd with 2-amino-N-(pyrid...

Pyrinodemin A 1, a cytotoxic marine alkaloid, was synthesized in a convergent and enantioselective fashion. The key steps are an asymmetric intramolecular dipolar cycloaddition of an oxazoline N-oxide to introduce the bicyclic ring system of the molecule, a cuprate coupling for the extension of the saturated chain and a B-alkyl Suzuki coupling for the introduction of a 3-pyridyl moiety. Reducti...

The first method for achieving alkyl–alkyl Suzuki reactions of unactivated secondary alkyl chlorides has been developed. Carbon–carbon bond formation occurs under mild conditions (at room temperature) with the aid of commercially available catalyst components. This method has proved to be versatile: without modification, it can be applied to Suzuki reactions of secondary and primary alkyl bromi...

The application of the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction in the synthesis of flavonoids, an important class of natural products, is reviewed. This reaction has not only been employed to provide access to flavonoid nuclei, but has also been applied to the synthesis of dimeric flavonoids and in the synthesis of libraries of flavonoid derivatives for biological activity studies. The classes of flavonoids th...

Stille and Suzuki-Miyaura reactions of 7-iodo-1,3-diphenyl-1,4-dihydro-1,2,4-benzotriazin-4-yl are presented as rare examples of cross-coupling reactions with stable organic radicals. Both the Stille and Suzuki-Miyaura reactions are in most cases high yielding but the latter are cleaner while the former are faster and are accompanied by 1,3-diphenyl-1,2,4-benzotriazin-7(H)-one as by-product. A ...

A well-defined NHC-Pd(II)-Im complex 1 was found to be an effective catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl sulfonates including tosylates and phenylsulfonates with arylboronic acids, giving the desired coupling products in good to high yields. Acceptable yields can also be achieved even by using the less reactive mesylates as the substrates. It is worthy of noting here that this is th...

Using a simple copper(i) catalyst has allowed a high yielding sulfonylative-Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction to be developed. The process provides a single step route to diaryl sulfones from the direct combination of aryl boronic acids, sulfur dioxide and aryl iodides, and represents the first sulfonylative variant of a classic cross-coupling reaction. Sulfur dioxide is delivered from the...

A modern undergraduate organic chemistry laboratory experiment involving the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling is reported. Although Suzuki-Miyaura couplings typically employ palladium catalysts in environmentally harmful solvents, this experiment features the use of inexpensive nickel catalysis, in addition to a "green" alcohol solvent. The experiment employs heterocyclic substrates, which are important...
