Abstract

The catalyst system consisting of lithium N-phenylsydnone-4-carboxylate/Pd(PPh3)4 has proven to be an effective catalyst for the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene with boronic acids in acetic acid at pH 5.7, whereas the N-phenylsydnone carbene palladium complex [sydPd(PPh3)2Br] required pH 8.0.

  • 16 General Procedure for the Preparation of Compounds 7a–h Under a nitrogen atmosphere samples of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (1, 0.050 g, 0.2 mmol) were dissolved in anhydrous 1,4-dioxane (8 mL) and treated with the catalyst (cat. 16, 10 mol%). The mixtures were subjected to ultrasound irradiation for 5 min and then stirred at r.t. for additional 25 min. Then, the corresponding boronic acid 6ah (2 equiv), sodium carbonate (4.7 mmol), and water (2 mL) were added. The mixtures were heated at 70 °C for 30 min. After cooling to r.t. the mixtures were dried over MgSO4. The resulting crude products were purified by column chromatography over silica gel (40–60 mesh) using a PE-CH2Cl2 (1:3) mixture as eluent. The analytical data and the characterization of each produced compound can be found in the Supporting Information. 2,4-Dinitro-1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl (7f) A sample of 1-(4-biphenyl)-boronic acid (0.098 g, 0.5 mmol), cat. 1 (10 mol%), Na2CO3 (4.7 mmol), and AcOH (17 mmol) were used. The reaction was monitored by TLC. The product was isolated as a yellowish solid; yield 91%; mp 154 °C. 1H NMR (600 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 7.41–7.42 (m, 3 H, H-2′, H-4′, H-6′), 7.47–7.49 (m, 2 H, H-3′′, H-5′′), 7.62–7.64 (d, J = 7.7 Hz, 2 H, H-2′′, H-6′′), 7.69–7.72 (m, 3 H, H-3′, H-5′, H-6′), 8.46–8.48 (dd, J = 7.7 Hz, 1 H, H-5), 8.72 (s, 1 H, H-3) ppm. 13C NMR (150 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 119.7 (+, 1 C, C-3), 126.5 (+, 1 C, C-5), 127.1 (+, 2 C, C-6′′, C-2′′), 127.7 (+, 2 C, C-3′, C-5′), 128.0 (+, 1 C, C-4′′), 128.1 (+, 2 C, C-6′, C-2′), 128.9 (+, 2 C, C-3′′, C-5′′), 133.1 (+, 1 C, C-6), 133.9 (o, 1 C, C-1′), 139.7 (o, 1 C, C-1′′), 141.8 (o, 1 C, C-1), 142.4 (o, 1 C, C-4′), 146.8 (o, 1 C, C-4), 149.0 (o, 1 C, C-2) ppm.
