Direct electrophilic borylation using Y(2)BCl (Y(2) = Cl(2) or o-catecholato) with equimolar AlCl(3) and a tertiary amine has been applied to wide range of arenes heteroarenes. In situ functionalization the ArBCl(2) products is possible TMS(2)MIDA, afford bench-stable easily isolable MIDA-boronates in moderate good yields. According combined experimental computational study, activated at 20 °C proceeds through an S(E)Ar mechanism borenium cations, [Y(2)B(amine)](+), key electrophiles. For...
In this paper, we report on a one-step catalyst-transfer macrocyclization (CTM) reaction, based the Pd-catalyzed Buchwald–Hartwig cross-coupling selectively affording only cyclic structures. This route offers versatile and efficient approach to synthesize aza[1n]paracyclophanes (APCs) featuring diverse functionalities lumens. The method operates at mild reaction temperatures (40 °C) short times (∼2 h), delivering excellent isolated yields (>75% macrocycles) up 30% of 6-membered cyclophane,...
Haloarenes undergo direct borylation using amine : BCl<sub>3</sub> AlCl<sub>3</sub> in the ratio of 1 2.
The present Protocol describes the application of catalyst-transfer macrocyclization (CTM) reaction, focusing on synthesis aza[1n]paracyclophanes (APCs). APCs are fully π-conjugated shape-persistent macrocycles with potential supramolecular chemistry and materials science applications. This method leverages Pd-catalyzed Buchwald–Hartwig cross-coupling reaction to selectively form cyclic structures, a significant advancement due its efficiency, versatility, scalability. Overall, this Article...
Electron-deficient (n-type) conjugated materials are commonly prepared via step-growth methods with limited control over the molecular weight and distribution of resulting polymers. In this communication, we demonstrate that Pd-dialkylbiarylphosphine catalysts enable chain-growth polymerization benzo[1,2,3]triazole using Suzuki-Miyaura coupling modest distributions (Đ ∼ 1.2-1.6). The importance a free ligand in reaction mixture during was established by analysis polymer samples GPC MALDI-TOF...
The synthesis of highly regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl), rr-P3HT, by Suzuki–Miyaura polymerization is reported. key N-methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) boronate ester thienyl monomer was synthesized using a one-pot multigram scale procedure, in high purity, and good isolated yield (80%) direct electrophilic borylation. Conditions for the hydrolysis MIDA protecting group reaction were investigated. optimal procedure gave rr-P3HT with >98% HT couplings, excellent yields (up to 94%),...
Thienyl di-N-methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) boronate esters are readily synthesized by electrophilic C-H borylation producing bench stable crystalline solids in good yield and excellent purity. Optimal conditions for the slow release of boronic using KOH as base biphasic THF/water mixtures enables thienyl MIDA to be extremely effective homo-bifunctionalized (AA-type) monomers Suzuki-Miyaura copolymerizations with dibromo-heteroarenes (BB-type monomers). A single polymerization protocol is...
