Abstract

The regioselective arylation at position 4 of 4-bromo-6-chloro-3-phenylpyridazine has been performed using a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction. This route allows access to a wide-ranging series of pharmacologically useful pyridazine derivatives and confirms the usefulness of chloropyridazines as a masking group for the carbonyl moiety in cross-coupling reactions involving 5-bromo-3(2H)-pyridazinones.

Key words

arylations - palladium - catalysis - pyridazine

4-Bromo-6-chloro-3-phenylpyridazine 2: 89%, mp: 111-112 °C (dec.), iso-PrOH. IR (KBr): 1590, 1480 cm-1. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz): 8.44 (s, 1 H, CH), 7.70 (m, 2 H, Aromatics), 7.54 (m, 3 H, Aromatics) ppm.

Cross-coupling Reactions, General Procedure: 5-Bromo-3-chloro-6-phenylpyridazine 2 (0.25 g, 0.93 mmol) was mixed with the arylboronic acid (0.93 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (5 mg, 0.006 mmol) and Na2CO3 (0.49 g, 5.08 mmol) in 30 mL of a 3:1 mixture of DME-H2O. The mixture was flushed with argon for 5 min and then stirred and heated at reflux (oil bath 90 °C) under argon until the starting material had disappeared (8-12 h). The mixture was allowed to cool and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was extracted into CH2Cl2 (3 × 20 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and then purified by column chromatography on silica gel to afford the 6-chloropyridazines 3, which were recrystallised from the appropriate solvent (Table).
