Copper catalyzedipso-nitration of iodoarenes, bromoarenes and heterocyclic haloarenes under ligand-free conditions

January 22, 2012

Publication year: 2012 Source: Tetrahedron Letters, Available online 21 January 2012 P.J. Amal Joseph, S. Priyadarshini, M. Lakshmi Kantam, H. Maheswaran A catalytic protocol for the conversion of haloarenes into the corresponding nitroarenes is presented using copper salts under ligand-free conditions. The method was effectively utilized for theipso-nitration of a broad variety of haloarenes that includes iodoarenes, bromoarenes and heterocyclic haloarenes.

Synthesis of 1-aryl-substituted-4-chloroimidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalines catalyzed by PdCl2in water

January 22, 2012

Publication year: 2012 Source: Tetrahedron Letters, Available online 20 January 2012 Mohammad Bakherad, Ali Keivanloo, Shahrzad Samangooei The reaction of 2-chloro-3-propargylaminoquinoxaline with various aryl iodides and bromides catalyzed by Pd–Cu in the presence of potassium carbonate as the base in water leads to the one-pot formation of 1-aryl-substituted-4-chloroimidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalines in moderate-to-high yields. The reaction of 2-chloro-3-propargylaminoquinoxaline with various aryl iodides and bromides catalyzed by Pd–Cu in the presence of potassium carbonate as the base in water leads to the one-pot formation of 1-aryl-substituted-4-chloroimidazo[1,2- a ]quinoxalines in moderate-to-high yields.
