1-(Hetero)aryl-2,2,2-trichloroethanols are useful key intermediates for the synthesis of various bioactive compounds. Herein, we describe N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-coordinated cyclometallated palladium complex (CYP)-catalyzed (hetero)aryl addition of chloral hydrate using (hetero)arylboroxines, providing a new approach to 1-(hetero)aryl-2,2,2-trichloroethanols. Notably, PhS-IPent-CYP which coordinated the bulky yet flexible 2,6-di(pentan-3-yl)aniline (IPent)-based NHC showed good catalytic activities and promoted the transformation in 24-97% yields.
1-(杂)芳基-2,2,2-三氯乙醇是合成各种生物活性化合物的重要关键中间体。在此,我们描述了N-杂环卡宾(NHC)配位的环金属化钯配合物(CYP)催化水合氯醛与(杂)芳基硼酸酯的(杂)芳基加成反应,为1-(杂)芳基-2,2,2-三氯乙醇提供了一种新的合成方法。值得注意的是,与庞大而灵活的基于2,6-二(戊-3-基)苯胺(IPent)的NHC配位的PhS-IPent-CYP表现出良好的催化活性,并以24-97%的产率促进了该转化反应。
