Abstract

o-C−H silylation of arylboronic acids has been achieved using 2-pyrazol-5-ylaniline as an ortho-directing agent, which was temporarily attached to the boronyl group via Ru-catalyzed silylation with hydrosilanes. Condensation products of arylboronic acids with 2-pyrazol-5-ylaniline were prepared in situ and subjected to reaction with triorganosilanes in the presence of RuH2(CO)(PPh3)3 at 135 °C. Regioselective silylation at their ortho-positions proceeded in good yields for phenylboronic acids bearing para-substituents such as chloro, fluoro, methyl, methoxy, and trifluoromethyl groups. p-Methoxycarbonyl-substituted phenylboronic acid provided the corresponding silylated product in moderate yield. m-Tolyl- and 2-naphthylboronic acids underwent silylation selectively at the less sterically hindered ortho-positions. The silylated products were utilized in Suzuki−Miyaura coupling, followed either by iodination with ICl or by Tamao oxidation to furnish iodine- or hydroxy-substituted biaryls.

Hideki Ihara, Masashi Koyanagi, and Michinori SuginomeOrganic Letters2011 Article ASAPAnthranilamide (AAM) serves as a bifunctional modifier on the boron atom in catalytic transformations of arylboronic acids. It makes boronyl groups unreactive in Suzuki–Miyaura coupling and promotes Ru-catalyzed ortho-silylation. Suzuki–Miyaura coupling ...

Divergent C–H Functionalizations Directed by Sulfonamide Pharmacophores: Late-Stage Diversification as a Tool for Drug Discovery

Hui-Xiong Dai, Antonia F. Stepan, Mark S. Plummer, Yang-Hui Zhang, and Jin-Quan YuJournal of the American Chemical Society2011 Article ASAPModern drug discovery is contingent on identifying lead compounds and rapidly synthesizing analogues. The use of a common pharmacophore to direct multiple and divergent C–H functionalizations of lead compounds is a particularly attractive approach. Herein,...
