Article Abstract

Herein, a novel palladium-catalyzed regioselective diarylation/deamination of homoallylamines is described. During the process, a ubiquitous free amine (NH) was used as the directing group to accomplish the regioselective δ,δ-diarylation and it was removed in situ to form the privileged 1,1,4,4-tetraaryl-1,3-butadiene motif. This chelate-controlled Heck-type approach eliminates the traditional need of preinstalled and hard removable directing groups, proceeds under simple conditions, and exhibits good tolerance to a wide range of synthetically useful functional groups.

A step-economic and efficient palladium-catalyzed protocol for regioselective C-2 arylation of 7-azaindoles with arylthianthrenium salts has been developed under base- and ligand-free conditions. The reaction proceeds smoothly with broad substrate scope, requires low catalyst loading, exhibits excellent functional group tolerance, and provides C-2 arylated products in moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, given the ready availability of arylthianthrenium salts from simple arenes, this strategy offers a valuable platform for the late-stage functionalization of structurally complex and bioactive molecules.

A novel palladium-catalyzed one-step dichalcogenation of cyclic diaryliodonium salts using readily available chalcogen sources (R-SH/-SeH) is described. This method enables the efficient synthesis of a diverse range of 2,2'-dichalcogenated biaryls under mild reaction conditions and achieves modest to good yields. Notably, this strategy displays both high regioselectivity and excellent functional group tolerance.

The selective modification of carbohydrates to achieve structural complexity has emerged as a crucial strategy in carbohydrate-based drug development. However, the intricate stereochemistry and densely packed functional groups of carbohydrates pose significant challenges for precise stereoselectivity and regioselectivity control. Herein, we report a palladium-catalyzed, stereospecific, and ligand-controlled regiodivergent glycosyl Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of 3-boryl-glycals, establishing a robust platform for glycoside diversification with versatile C1 and C3 modification.

Alkyl boronic acids and esters are versatile synthetic intermediates that generally require several steps to synthesize. Three-component alkene arylboration reactions allow for the rapid synthesis of alkyl boronic esters. Herein, we report the base-free aerobic Pd-catalyzed three-component alkene arylboration, which allows direct access, in a single step, to alkyl boronic esters from readily available precursors: aryl boronic acids, alkenes, and bis(pinacol)diboron.
