Ruthenium‐Catalyzed C−H Arylation of Benzoic Acids and Indole Carboxylic Acids with Aryl Halides

چکیده
Herein we report the first Ru-catalyzed C-H arylation of benzoic acids with readily available aryl (pseudo)halides. The reaction, which does not require the use of silver salt additives, allows the arylation of previously challenging hindered benzoic acids and the use of generally unreactive ortho-substituted halorarenes. Furthermore, our new protocol can efficiently be applied to indole carboxylic acids, thus allowing access to C7-, C6-, C5- and C4-arylated indole compounds, a departure from the classical enhanced reactivity of the C2 and C3 positions of indole.

Ruthenium-Catalyzed C–H Arylation of Diverse Aryl Carboxylic Acids with Aryl and Heteroaryl Halides
Ruthenium ligated to tricyclohexylphosphine or di-tert-butylbipyridine catalyzes the arylation of carboxylic acids with diverse aryl halides (iodide, bromide, and triflate; aryl and heteroaryl). In addition, arylations with 2-iodophenol formed benzochromenones, carboxylate was shown to be a stronger donor than an amide, and the arylation of a pyridine carboxylate was demonstrated. Stoichiometri...

To date, examples of α-arylation of carboxylic acids remain scarce. Using a deprotonative cross-coupling process (DCCP), a method for palladium-catalyzed γ-arylation of aryl acetic acids with aryl halides has been developed. This protocol is applicable to a wide range of aryl bromides and chlorides. A procedure for the palladium-catalyzed α-arylation of styryl acetic acids is also described.

Aryl-substituted benzothiazoles and benzoxazoles are an important class of heterocyclic compound and have shown a wide range of biological activities, such as antitumor, antiviral, and antimicrobial activities. In addition, these compounds have become essential building blocks for the synthesis of conjugated functional materials, such as industrial dyes and plant growth regulators. The conventi...
متن کاملPalladium-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of aromatic acids with aryl halides or unactivated arenes using microwave heating.
Microwave heating greatly accelerates Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of aromatic acids and aryl iodides, and allows the coupling of benzoic acids with unactivated arenes.
متن کاملRuthenium(II)-catalyzed sp3 C-H bond arylation of benzylic amines using aryl halides.
A ruthenium(II)-catalyzed protocol for the direct arylation of benzylic amines was developed. Employing 3-substituted pyridines as directing groups, arylation was achieved using aryl bromides or aryl iodides as the aryl source. Potassium pivalate proved to be an important additive in this transformation. The arylation took place selectively in the benzylic sp(3) position, and no significant com...
