Abstract:The coupling reaction of pinacolborane with various aryl bromides in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)(2) together with DPEphos as ligand and Et(3)N as base provided arylboronates. High yields were obtained in the case of electron-donor substituted aryl bromides. The direct preparation of arylboronates allowed the one-pot, two-step synthesis of unsymmetrical biaryls in high yields. [reaction: see text]
New technology for palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings between B2pin2 and aryl bromides leading to arylboronates is described. Micellar catalysis serves to enable borylations to take place in water as the only medium at ambient temperatures.

“…[24] Therefore, to isolate the boronic ester, we considered the reaction with bis-pinacolborane in the presence of a palladium catalyst. [25] In all cases, the starting material was recovered in quantitative yield, which again demonstrated the lack of reactivity of this substrate.…”
Two new nanovehicles that have extended aromatic platforms as the cargo zones have been obtained. Two strategies were considered for the formation of the perylene core from two naphthalene precursors. The first was based on a Scholl-type reaction involving an oxidant, and the second used a brominated derivative to perform a homocoupling reaction. The first strategy failed under diverse coupling conditions in the presence of several strong oxidants. Nevertheless, the use of CoF(3) in trifluoroacetic acid triggered a dimerization reaction between two ester groups of one molecule and the naphthalene unit of another, thereby surprisingly yielding a ten-membered carbon macrocycle. The second strategy encountered a lack of reactivity of the substrate under several homocoupling conditions. The dimerization was not easily performed but Ullmann-type conditions ultimately gave the expected product. The low yield and low solubility of the product encouraged us to modify our initial design. The synthesis of a new chassis that incorporated additional tert-butyl groups improved the solubility of the molecules and also prevented overcyclization of the aromatic platform by blocking these positions. Some p-phenylene spacers were also intercalated between the iodine and perylene centers to increase the reactivity of the halide towards coupling reactions. Two new chassis were obtained by Scholl-type oxidative coupling using FeCl(3) as the oxidant. The introduction of four triptycene wheels allowed the formation of the two corresponding nanovehicles.
“…First a phenyl substituted 2-halodiene (44) was subjected to the cross-coupling reaction with pinacolborane following a protocol similar to the one Colobert and co-workers used in their arylboronates synthesis. 51 Reduced diene (47) was obtained as the major product in this process instead of the expected product (48). In a second attempt to overcome this problem, a diboryl reagent (49) was employed with ligandless palladium catalyst conditions, similar to the approach taken by Zhang and co-workers in their arylboronate synthesis.…”
