Silica-grafted n-propyl-diaza-15-crown-5 (SGPDC) with immobilized palladium nanoparticles was found as an efficient heterogeneous catalytic system for the Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions and satisfied results were obtained. Different derivatives of aryl halides and alkenes under the Heck reaction were converted to the corresponding products with good efficiency. The presence of elec...

this study offers an exclusive class of magnetic nanoparticles supported hyperbranched polyglycerol (mnp/hpg) that was functionalized with citric acid (mnp/hpg-ca) as a host immobilization of palladium nanoparticles. the mnp/hpg-ca/pd catalyst was fully characterized using some different techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (tga), x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microsco...

An efficient and stereoselective catalytic system for the Heck cross coupling reaction using novel 1,3-dialkyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidinium salts (1, LHX) and Pd(OAc)2 loading has been reported. The palladium complexes derived from the salts 1a-f prepared in situ exhibit good catalytic activity in the Heck coupling reaction of aryl bromides under mild conditions.

A palladium (Pd)-catalyzed endo-selective Heck reaction of iodomethylsilyl ethers of phenols and aliphatic alkenols has been developed. Mechanistic studies reveal that this silyl methyl Heck reaction operates via a hybrid Pd-radical process and that the silicon atom is crucial for the observed endo selectivity. The obtained allylic silyloxycycles were further oxidized into (Z)-alkenyldiols.

An efficient enantioselective intramolecular Heck reaction of cyclohexadienones, using readily available and modular TADDOL-based mono- and bidentate phosphoramidites as chiral ligands and not requiring any additives, has been developed. Excellent enantioselectivities up to 96% ee are reached for the first time in a Heck reaction with monodentate ligands.

Boronic pinacol ester group is not reactive in Kumada, Heck and Stille coupling reaction conditions. Fluorene-based sophisticated organoboron compounds were synthesized by means of Palladium catalyzed Kumada, Heck and Stille cross-coupling reactions from halofluorenyl boronic esters.

A sequence of acetamide directed oxidative Heck reaction and deacetylation-diazotation-Heck coupling allows the traceless removal of the acetamide group and its dual exploitation as a catalyst directing group and a leaving group.

Amino alcohols have been used to introduce non-racemic chirality into macrocycles using a modular approach that relies on a Heck macrocyclisation reaction. A wide variety of macrocycles have been synthesised, and their structures studied using X-ray crystallography and molecular modelling. A fragmentation reaction encountered during the use of (S)-1,1-dimethylvalinol revealed that carboxylic ac...

The formation of an atypical, saturated, diarylated, Heck/Suzuki, domino product produced under oxidative Heck reaction conditions, employing arylboronic acids and a chelating vinyl ether, has been investigated by DFT calculations. The calculations highlight the crucial role of 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ) in the reaction. In addition to its role as an oxidant of palladium, which is necessary to compl...
