High-Throughput Discovery and Evaluation of a General Catalytic Method for N-Arylation of Weakly Nucleophilic Sulfonamides

Abstract: Sulfonamides are poor nucleophiles in Pd C-N coupling catalysis, hindering synthesis of densely-functionalized N,N-diaryl sulfonamide motifs relevant to medicinal chemistry. Through targeted high-throughput experimentation (HTE), we have identified the Pd/AdBippyPhos catalyst system as an effective and general method to construct this difficult to access moiety. In particular, AdBippyPhos is critical for the installation of heteroaromatic groups. Computational steric parameterization of the investigated ligand… Show more

“…In addition to C–N couplings with primary and secondary amines, we assessed complex 1 as a precursor for the more challenging arylation of sulfonamides and imidazoles . For the synthesis of a representative N- arylsulfonamide via Pd-catalyzed coupling, we evaluated several large-cone-angle ligands reported to be effective.…”

“…For the synthesis of a representative N- arylsulfonamide via Pd-catalyzed coupling, we evaluated several large-cone-angle ligands reported to be effective. These include biarylphosphines, such as JackiePhos and t BuXPhos, as well as XantPhos and Bippyphos. ,, Under the conditions used (excess K 2 CO 3 and CPME solvent, adapted from previously reported conditions), Pd­(OAc) 2 is almost completely ineffective, generating only modest amounts of product and yielding no clear hits. The other three Pd sources fare better, with the combination of 1 and t BuXPhos giving the largest amount of N -arylsulfonamide product.…”

“…Leitch and coworkers [38] have shown the power of HTE by identifying a potent Pd catalyst and ligand combination that enables CÀ N coupling to form sterically demanding N,N' diaryl sulfonamides. Initial screens focused on aryl and pyridyl bromides with the same sulfonamide in the presence of multiple palladium sources, phosphine ligands, and carbonate bases.…”

“…A modest number of publications documenting Cu or Pd‐catalyzed cross‐couplings of sulfonamides with (hetero)aryl bromides or iodides have appeared . By comparison, no such Cu‐catalyzed cross‐couplings of chloride or phenol derivatives have been published, and Pd‐catalyzed cross‐couplings of this type ( that is, (hetero)aryl sulfonate or chloride reaction partners) are limited.…”
