ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the prepn. of novel biaryl phosphine and amine ligands (I) [wherein A and B = independently fused monocyclic or polycyclic cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, or heterocyclic rings of 4-8 atoms; X = NR2, PR2, AsR2, OR, or SR; Y = NR2, PR2, AsR2, OR, SR, SiR3, alkyl, or H; R-R6 = independently H, halogen, (hetero)alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, hydroxy, alkoxy, silyloxy, amino, nitro, sulfhydryl, amide, carbonyl, ketone, anhydride, silyl, thioalkyl, ketone, ester, nitrile, (hetero)aryl, etc.] for transition metals and their use in metal-catalyzed carbon-heteroatom and carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions. Unexpected improvements over the prior art were demonstrated in transition metal-catalyzed aryl amination reactions, Suzuki couplings giving both biaryl and alkylaryl products, arylations and vinylations at the position .alpha. to carbonyl groups, and carbon-oxygen bond formation. The ligands and methods of the invention enable transformations utilizing aryl chlorides and bromides at room temp. at synthetically useful rates with extremely small amts. of catalyst relative to the limiting reagent. For example, coupling of p-chlorobenzonitrile and morpholine was catalyzed by 2.5 mol% Pd2(dba)3, 7.5 mol% of 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)-2'-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl, and NaOBu-t in DME at room temp. to provide 4-(4-morpholinyl)benzonitrile in 96% yield. Thus, the subject processes provide improvements in many features of the transition metal-catalyzed reactions, including the range of suitable substrates, reaction conditions, and efficiency.
