3-(Diarylmethylene)oxindoles have been synthesized from propiolamidoaryl triflate utilizing a palladium-catalyzed one-pot reaction consisting of three successive reactions: Sonogashira, Heck, and Suzuki-Miyaura. This method allows for the production of a complex skeleton of 3-(diarylmethylene)oxindole from propiolamidoaryl triflate using a commercially available aryl iodide and arylboronic acid...

An iterative strategy for the synthesis of new sulfur-functionalized oligothiophenes by Suzuki or Stille cross-coupling reactions was applied to the reaction of 4-bromo-tert-butylphenylthioether with thiophene derivatives. The planarity of the oligothiophenes obtained was confirmed by the singlecrystal X-ray structure analysis of 2-(4′-tert-butylthiophenyl)thiophene, which shows a potentially l...

Nanoporous metallic glass Pd, which was fabricated by dealloying of a glassy metallic alloy Pd(30)Ni(50)P(20), exhibited a remarkable catalytic activity for the Suzuki-coupling reaction between iodoarenes and arylboronic acids under mild conditions. Moreover, the catalyst can be reused several times without a significant loss of catalytic activity.

Highly active, air-stable and water-soluble palladium-phosphinous acid complexes have been applied to Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of heteroaryl bromides under mild conditions in water/alcoholic solvents. Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of heteroaryl bromides with phenylboronic acid occurred efficiently using palladium phosphinous acid complexes (POPd) and phase transfer catalyst (tetrabutylam...

A simple and efficient catalytic system based on a Pd complex of 4-aminoantipyrine, 4-AAP-Pd(II), was found to be highly active for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl iodides and bromides with phenylboronic acids under mild reaction conditions. Good to excellent product yields from the cross-coupling reaction can be achieved when the reaction is carried out in ethanol, in the open air, using...

[reaction: see text]. Sterically demanding, water-soluble alkylphosphines have been found to give highly active catalysts for Suzuki coupling of aryl bromides in aqueous solvents. A variety of aryl bromides and boronic acids were coupled in excellent yield. Turnover numbers up to 734 000 mmol/mmol Pd have been achieved under mild conditions.

Readily accessed cobalt pre-catalysts with N-heterocyclic carbene ligands catalyze the Suzuki cross-coupling of aryl chlorides and bromides with alkyllithium-activated arylboronic pinacolate esters. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that the cobalt species is reduced to Co0 during the reaction.

o-Quinodimethane (o-QDM) generated from benzosultine was used to extend the pyrrole system for the preparation of octabromo-tetranaphtho[2,3]porphyrins via oxidative aromatization. The properties of these bromoporphyrins were presented and chemical transformation via Pd-catalyzed Suzuki reaction was also effectively achieved.

Analogs of cortistatins, a series of anti-angiogenic compounds isolated from the Indonesian marine sponge Cortisium simplex, were synthesized from estrone by using the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction as the key step. The estrone-isoquinoline hybridized compound showed selective inhibitory activity against the proliferation and VEGF-induced migration of HUVEC.
