A distal-selective alkenyl C-H arylation method is reported through a directed palladium/norbornene (Pd/NBE) cooperative catalysis. The key is to use an appropriate combination of the directing group and the NBE cocatalyst. A range of acyclic and cyclic -olefins are suitable substrates, and the reaction is operated under air with excellent site-selectivity. Preliminary mechanistic studies are consistent with the proposed Pd/NBE-catalyzed C-H activation instead of the Heck pathway. Initial success on distal alkylation has also been achieved using MeI and methyl bromoacetate as electrophiles.
通过定向钯/降冰片烯(Pd/NBE)协同催化,报道了一种远端选择性烯基C-H芳基化方法。关键在于使用导向基团和NBE助催化剂的适当组合。一系列无环和环状烯烃是合适的底物,该反应在空气中进行,具有出色的位点选择性。初步机理研究与所提出的Pd/NBE催化的C-H活化而非Heck途径一致。使用碘甲烷和溴乙酸甲酯作为亲电试剂,在远端烷基化方面也取得了初步成功。
