Most of the compounds have physiologically active properties, and their biological properties are often attributed to the heteroatoms contained in their molecules, and most of these heteroatoms also appear in cyclic structures. A Journal, Article, Research Support, N.I.H., Extramural, Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov’t, Research Support, U.S. Gov’t, Non-P.H.S., Journal of the American Chemical Society called Sulfonate Versus Sulfonate: Nickel and Palladium Multimetallic Cross-Electrophile Coupling of Aryl Triflates with Aryl Tosylates, Author is Kang, Kai; Huang, Liangbin; Weix, Daniel J., which mentions a compound: 29046-78-4, SMILESS is COCCOC.Cl[Ni]Cl, Molecular C4H10Cl2NiO2, Electric Literature of C4H10Cl2NiO2.
While phenols are frequent and convenient aryl sources in cross-coupling, typically as sulfonate esters, the direct cross-Ullmann coupling of two different sulfonate esters is unknown. We report here a general solution to this challenge catalyzed by a combination of Ni and Pd with Zn reductant and LiBr as an additive [e.g., 4-methoxyphenyl triflate + Ph tosylate → 4-methoxybiphenyl (76%)]. The reaction has broad scope, as demonstrated in 33 examples (65% ± 11% average yield). Mechanistic studies show that Pd strongly prefers the aryl triflate, the Ni catalyst has a small preference for the aryl tosylate, aryl transfer between catalysts is mediated by Zn, and Pd improves yields by consuming arylzinc intermediates.
Different reactions of this compound(Nickel(II) chloride ethylene glycol dimethyl ether complex)Electric Literature of C4H10Cl2NiO2 require different conditions, so the reaction conditions are very important.
