Hydroboration of vinyl halides with mesitylborane : a direct access to (mesityl)(alkyl)haloboranes.

The direct access to (mesityl)(alkyl)haloboranes (Mes(Alk)BX) (X = Br, Cl) from mesitylborane dimer and vinyl halides is presented. The involved hydroboration reaction results in the transfer of the halogen atom...

Electrochemical Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi Coupling: Scope, Applications, and Mechanism

One of the most oft-employed methods for C–C bond formation involving the coupling of vinyl-halides with aldehydes catalyzed by Ni and Cr (Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi, NHK) has been rendered more practical using an electroreductive manifold. Although early studies pointed to the feasibility of such a process those precedents were never applied by others due to cumbersome setups and limited scope. Here we show that a carefully optimized electroreductive procedure can enable a more sustainable approach to NHK, even in an asymmetric fashion on highly complex medicinally relevant systems. The e-NHK can even enable non-canonical substrate classes, such as redox-active esters, to participate with low loadings of Cr when conventional chemical techniques fail. A combination of detailed kinetics, cyclic voltammetry, and in situ UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry of these processes illuminates the subtle features of this mechanistically intricate process.

Transition metals mediated cross coupling methodologies provide an extremely powerful versatile pathway in organic syntheses undoubtedly, a facile route for syntheses and derivatization of biologically important heterocycles from easily available precursors. Sonogashira coupling reaction, a leading method to Csp-Csp2 bond formation is one of the most important and rapid pathways to couple aryl/vinyl halides with terminal alkynes. Current research study deals with the synthesis of alkyne substituted quinoxaline derivatives. The quinoxalines class of aromatic heterocycles exhibits a wide variety of important biological potencies. Palladium catalyzed cross coupling process provided an effective synthetic practice for the synthesis of alkyne derivatives of quinoxaline.
