A Pd(II)-catalyzed Sonogashira type cross-coupling reaction between 2-iodothiophenol and phenylacetylene has been developed. A series of 2-substituted benzo[b]thiophenes were obtained in moderate to good yield (up to 87%). The application of this method was demonstrated by the synthesis of 2-(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide and (4-methoxyphenyl)(2-(4-methoxyphenyl) benzo[b]th...

Acyclic diaminocarbenes are found to be useful ligands for palladium catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura, Sonogashira and Heck cross-coupling reactions of aryl/alkenyl bromides and chlorides.

Regioselectively brominated BODIPYs were shown to undergo nucleophilic substitution and Sonogashira coupling reactions with a one-pot procedure, yielding diversely substituted fluorophores.

A symmetrical pyrene derivative chemical structure was prepared by a classical synthetic method such as the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction. The molecular of product characterised in detail nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS) and other methods. Furthermore, optical properties novel products were studied UV-vis photoluminescence spectroscopy. electrochemical molecules fu...

Regioselective palladium catalysed coupling reactions are achieved in good to high yields, starting from either 3,5-dichloro- or 3,5-dibromoisothiazole-4-carbonitriles 1 and 2, providing 3-halo-5-(hetero/aryl, alkenyl and alkynyl)isothiazoles 3, 4, 6-9 from Stille couplings, 3-halo-5-(hetero/arylethynyl)isothiazoles 14-19 from Sonogashira and 5,5'-bi(3-chloroisothiazole-4-carbonitrile) (13) fro...

Two organoboron based fluorophores pyrazabole and BODIPY have been designed and synthesized by the Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction and successfully employed for fluoride and cyanide ion sensing. Pyrazabole acts as a fluorimetric sensor, whereas BODIPY acts as a fluorimetric as well as colorimetric sensor for fluoride and cyanide ions with ratiometric response. The photophysical...

We disclose a general two-step procedure to access hitherto unknown and under explored 5- 6-alkynyl-3-fluoro-2-pyridinamidoximes from 6-bromo-3-fluoro-2-cyanopyridines wide range of easily available bench-stable terminal alkynes, using Sonogashira cross-coupling, as the first step. The generation polar amidoxime group is realized at late stage upon treatment alkynylfluorocyanopyridine by hydrox...

Herein, we describe the synthesis of novel unsymmetrical polycarbo-substituted 4-anilinoquinazolines derived from the 2-aryl-6-bromo-8-iodoquinazolines via one-pot three-step reaction sequences involving initial amination and subsequent double cross-coupling (bis-Suzuki, Sonogashira/Stille or Sonogashira/Suzuki-Miyaura) reactions with different cross coupling partners for the two carbon-carbon ...

The reactivity of the 7-chloro-8-iodo- and 8-chloro-7-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines 1a-e diversely substituted on the 2 position, towards Suzuki-Miyaura, Sonogashira, and Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reactions as well as cyanation was evaluated. Various methodologies are proposed to introduce aryl, heteroaryl, alkyne, amine or cyano groups in the two positions depending on the nature of the su...
