The combination of ArB(OH) transmetallation with cationic gold(I) [LAu] and electrochemical anodic oxidation (EAO) approach was successfully developed for the preparation of Au-Ar intermediate for the first time. This generated aryl gold intermediate gave rapid and controllable transmetallation with ArB(OH) or alkyne followed by reductive elimination to generate either di-aryl coupling or sp-sp Sonogashira-type coupling products under mild conditions with no need of external oxidants, which significantly extended the versatility of electrochemical approach in promoting gold redox catalysis.
首次成功开发了将芳基硼酸(ArB(OH))与阳离子金(I)[LAu]的转金属化反应与电化学阳极氧化(EAO)方法相结合的策略,用于制备金-芳基中间体。所生成的芳基金中间体能够与ArB(OH)或炔烃快速且可控地发生转金属化反应,随后通过还原消除反应,在温和条件下生成二芳基偶联产物或sp-sp型Sonogashira偶联产物,无需外部氧化剂,这显著拓展了电化学方法在促进金氧化还原催化方面的应用范围。
