Oxazolo[5,4-f]quinoxalines, thiazolo[5,4-f]quinoxalines and pyrazino[b,e]isatins were all obtained from 5-iodo-6-aminoquinoxalines. While the first two families synthesized by nitrogen functionalization subsequent copper-catalyzed cyclization, latter was Sonogashira coupling, alkyne hydration, oxidative cyclization. Most of polycycles evaluated in biological tests.

Anthraquinones are of significant interest due to their biological activity, coloring properties, and synthetic applications. Here, we describe a mild convenient method for modification 1-ethynyl-4-hydroxyanthraquinone that was obtained from the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction 1-hydroxy-4-iodoanthraquinone with alkynes. The copper(I) catalyzed one-pot three-component (A3-coupling) new secon...

Pd-catalysed C-C bond formation is an essential tool within the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Many of these reactions rely heavily on polar aprotic solvents; however, despite their utility, these solvents are incompatible with the drive towards more sustainable chemical synthesis. Herein, we describe the scope and limitations of an alternative to DMF derived from renewable sources...

A new versatile polythiophene building block, 3-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)prop-1-yne (pyEDOT) (3), is prepared from glycidol in four steps in 28% overall yield. pyEDOT features an ethynyl group on its ethylenedioxy bridge, allowing further functionalization by alkyne chemistry. Its usefulness is demonstrated by a series of functionalized polythiophene derivatives that were obtained by pre- an...

Progress in DNA-encoded chemical library synthesis and screening crucially relies on the availability of DNA-compatible reactions, which proceed with high yields excellent purity for a large number possible building blocks. In past, experimental conditions have been presented execution Suzuki Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions on-DNA. this article, our aim was to optimize comparing results pr...

The recognition of the local symmetric image within benzofuran-based natural oligostilbenoids guided us to design a modular synthetic approach to these molecules by utilizing a three-step sequence consisting of Sonogashira coupling, iodocyclization, and Suzuki coupling. During our synthesis, the relative reactivities of ester, aldehyde, and alkoxy groups on the same aryl ring toward the neighbo...

The 2-aryl-6,8-dibromo-4-chloroquinazolines derived from the 2-aryl-6,8-dibromoquinazolin-4(3H)-ones were subjected to the Sonogashira cross-coupling with terminal acetylenes at room temperature to afford novel 2-aryl-6,8-dibromo-4-(alkynyl)quinazoline derivatives. Further transformation of the 2-aryl-6,8-dibromo-4-(phenylethynyl)quinazolines via Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with arylboronic a...

Aqueous Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions of 5-iodopyrimidine or 7-iodo-7-deazaadenine nucleosides with bile acid-derived terminal acetylenes linked via an ester or amide tether gave the corresponding bile acid-nucleoside conjugates. Analogous reactions of halogenated nucleoside triphosphates gave directly bile acid-modified dNTPs. Enzymatic incorporation of these modified nucleotides to DNA...

Transition metal-catalyzed reactions are generally used for carbon-carbon bond formation on pyrazines and include, but are not limited to, classical palladium-catalyzed reactions like Sonogashira, Heck, Suzuki, and Stille reactions. Also a few examples of carbon-heteroatom bond formation in pyrazines are known. This perspective reviews recent progress in the field of transition metal-catalyzed ...

Photochromic pyrans for applications in material and life sciences were synthesized via palladium-mediated cyanation, carbonylation and Sonogashira cross-coupling starting from bromo-substituted naphthopyran 1 and benzopyrans 2a/b. A novel photoswitchable benzopyran-based omega-amino acid 6 for Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis is presented. The photochromic behaviour of the 3-cyano-subs...
