TL;DR: The asymmetric synthesis of L-699,392, a leukotriene antagonist, is described in this paper. But the main framework of the molecule is formed via a Heck reaction.
Abstract: The asymmetric synthesis of L-699,392, a leukotriene antagonist, is reported. The main framework of the molecule is formed via a Heck reaction. The introduction of the asymmetric center was accomplished by the chiral reduction of prochiral ketone using B-chlorodiisopinocampheylborane. A very high asymmetric amplification was observed in which 95% ee product can be obtained from 70% optically pure a-pinene. A new reagent, which is prepared in situ from methylmagnesium chloride and lithiumhexamethyldisilazide, is used to convert the methyl ester to the methyl ketone in one step with essentially no impurities formed under the reaction conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, a new synthetic route to (±)-N 2 -(Benzensulfonyl)-CPI (16), the protected A-unit containing a cyclopropylhexadienone moiety of the highly potent antitumor antibiotic CC-1065 (1), from 5-(benzyloxy)-2-bromophenylamine (3) is described.
Abstract: A new synthetic route to (±)-N 2 -(Benzensulfonyl)-CPI (16), the protected A-unit containing a cyclopropylhexadienone moiety of the highly potent antitumor antibiotic CC-1065 (1), from 5-(benzyloxy)-2-bromophenylamine (3) is described. The key steps are a zirconium- and a palladium initiated cyclization to give the two pyrrole moieties. Reaction of 4a with zirconocene (methyl) chloride leads after workup with I 2 to the 4-iodoindoline 7a, which was transformed into 12 and subsequently via Heck reaction into the pyrroloindoline 15

TL;DR: In this paper, 1,3,5,7-Tetrakis(4-iodophenyl)adamantane was reacted with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol and phenylacetylene under Pd-catalyzed Heck coupling cnnditions to give the two corresponding tetraacetylene derivatives.
Abstract: 1,3,5,7-Tetrakis(4-iodophenyl)adamantane was reacted with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol and phenylacetylene under Pd-catalyzed Heck coupling cnnditions to give the two corresponding tetraacetylene derivatives. Deprotection of the first gave the derivative with free terminal acetylenes. Thermal cure of both acetylene-containing monomers was monitored by FTIR. Both NMR and FTIR confirmed the presence of adamantane in the otherwise all-aromatic structures. TGA indicated that these highly crosslinked materials began to degrade at ca. 450 and 490°C, respectively, in air

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that allylic ether substitution is compatible with intramolecular Heck chemistry and suggests applications of this chemistry in the synthesis of highly oxidized cardenolides.

TL;DR: In this paper, the stereoselective palladium-catalysed synthesis of the heterocycles 13-15 with a (Z)-exocyclic allylsilane moiety is described.
Abstract: The stereoselective palladium-catalysed synthesis of the heterocycles 13-15 with a (Z)-exocyclic allylsilane moiety is described. Alkylation of the secondary amides 5a, 5b, 9a, and 9b and the phenol 11 containing an iodoaryl moiety with the propargyl iodide 6 leads to the propargylsilanes 7a, 7b, 10a, 10b, and 12, which are allowed to react with a catalyst system of Pd(OAc)2/PPh3/NPr4Br and sodium formate as a hydride source. The (Z) configuration of the cyclisation products is confirmed by NOESY spectra and a single-crystal X-ray structure of 13b.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a previously described palladium-catalyzed tandem cyclisation leading to linear triquinanes has been generalized by disfavoring the competing Heck reaction, and two structural factors (nature of the nucleophile and of the vinylic halogen) play an important role in this generalization.

TL;DR: The increasing use of vinyl and aryl trifluoromethanesulfonates (triflates) is due to their facile preparation from carbonyl compounds and phenols.
Abstract: The increasing use of vinyl and aryl trifluoromethanesulfonates (triflates) is due to their facile preparation from carbonyl compounds and phenols. They undergo cross-coupling reactions with organo-metallics as the corresponding organic halides or addition reactions to alkenes and alkynes. Especially in the Heck reaction triflates proved to be superior to halides with respect to regio- and diastereoselectivity. Palladium-catalyzed carbon monoxide insertion of triflates leading to the corresponding esters or amides has found widespread application in natural product synthesis. Various deoxygenation procedures for ketones or phenols are based on the ease of removal of the trifluoromethanesulfoxy group

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the essential structural prerequisites of the catalyst to control metal-catalysed polycondensations are presented. But, unlike chain reactions with constant valence of the metal, step polymerization with changing valence is not a constant chain reaction.
Abstract: While metal-catalysed polymerizations are chain reactions with constant valence of the metal, metal-catalysed polycondensations are step polymerizations with changing valence of the metal. Taking as examples the Pd-catalysed vinyl polymerization of norbornene, the alternating copolymerization of ethylene and carbon monoxide, and the Heck reaction, the essential structural prerequisites of the catalyst to control those reactions are presented. Metal-catalysed polycondensations may occur as one- or two-electron processes. The oxidative polymerization of 2,6-dimethylphenol, and the Ni-catalysed polyphenylene synthesis are discussed
