With the plethora of new and efficient Cā€“C bond-forming reactions available to the organic chemists growing on a monthly basis, one area that suffers is the substrate scope for previously reported examples. In this case Kim and Reike ( Tetrahedron Lett. 2011, 52, 1523āˆ’1526) reinvestigate work originally reported by Rovis. Initially Kim performs a small catalyst screen using various commercially available catalysts, resulting in Ni(acac)2 being chosen for the remaining coupling reactions due to the rate of reaction and the isolated yield it facilitated. With a large selection of organozinc reagents via direct insertion developed by Reike, they then apply the developed conditions to 26 examples, all of which gave isolated product in good to excellent yields on gram scale.

Preparation of aryl ketones via Ni-catalyzed Negishi-coupling reactions with acid chlorides

Abstract

A Ni-catalyst-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of organozinc reagents with acid chlorides has been successfully developed. Mild reaction conditions were required to complete the coupling reactions affording the corresponding aryl ketones in good to excellent yields.

A representative procedure of coupling reaction; In a 25 mL round-bottomed flask, Ni(acac)2, (0.06 g, 2 mol%) and 10 mL (5 mmol) of 0.5 M solution of 2- (ehtoxycarbonyl)phenylzinc bromide in THF was added into the flask at room temperature. Next, 6-chloronicotinoyl chloride (0.70 g, 4 mmol) dissolved in 5.0 mL of THF was added. The resulting mixture was refluxed overnight, then cooled down to room temperature. Quenched with saturated NH4Cl solution, then extracted with ethyl acetate (30 mL 3). Combined organics were washed with saturated Na2S2O3 solution and brine. Dried over anhydrous MgSO4. A flash column chromatography (50% EtOAc/50% Heptane) gave 0.78 g of 3g as yellow solid in 68% isolated.
