Efficient and sustainable Buchwald-Hartwig amination enables the synthesis of new branched polymeric HTL materials for perovskite solar cells with performances comparable those Spiro-OMeTAD.

Unusual 2,7-diazacarbazoles were prepared in one step from readily available tetra-halogenated 4,4'-bipyridines by using a double N-arylation reaction in the presence of the Pd-XPhos catalyst system. Moderate to good yields were obtained in this site-selective Buchwald-Hartwig double amination. The functionalization of these tricyclic derivatives was performed by using Pd-catalyzed cross-coupli...

5-pyrrolidino-m-terphenyl (1) is synthesized via a Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction. This terphenyl readily halogenated under ambient conditions with tetrabutylammonium tribromide to generate 4-pyrrolidino-2,6-diphenylbromobenzene (2). The reaction of (2) magnesium results in the conversion its corresponding Grignard reagent (3). Quenching (3) water recovery (1), demonstrating ability r...

Front Cover: In article number 2000520 by Myungeun Seo, Wonhee Lee, and co-workers, a cross-coupling reaction is utilized for polymer surface modification. Poly(chloro-p-xylylene) (parylene C) used as substrate in Pd-catalyzed Buchwald–Hartwig amination to install primary amine groups. Parylene films with microscale topography can be successfully modified chemically bonded fabricate transparent...

Inspired by naturally occurring molecules containing atropisomeric N+-C axes, we have developed a novel synthetic approach to generate library of axially chiral N-aryl quinolinium salts. Enantiopurities up 93 % ee were obtained via four-step route from commercially available precursors. Axial stereochemistry was controlled through an enantioselective ring-closing Buchwald–Hartwig coupling react...

Fe-MIL-101-isatin-Schiff-base-Co was synthesized and applied as a catalyst for Ullmann-type, Buchwald–Hartwig, Hirao, Hiyama Mizoroki–Heck cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides.

Using N-sulfonyl triazoles as substrates, compounds as diverse as 2-imino tetrahydrofurans, 13and 15membered ring aza-macrocycles can be prepared selectively via formal [1 + 4], [5 + 4 + 4] and [3 + 4 + 4 + 4] condensations of a-imino carbenes and oxetanes under Rh(II)-catalysis or thermal activation. Spirocyclic N-heterocycles are also accessible by means of Buchwald–Hartwig and Pictet–Spengle...

Several Hiyama cross-coupling reactions of oxasilacycloalkenes and aryl iodides are described that produce trisubstituted Z-styrenes in moderate to excellent yields. Both electron-rich and electron-poor aryl iodides are tolerated in the cross-coupling reaction. The oxasilacycloalkene coupling partners were prepared by ruthenium-catalyzed intramolecular anti-hydrosilylation of alkynols. One of t...
