C–O-Selective Cross-Coupling of Chlorinated Phenol Derivatives
This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation (CAREER: CHE-1848090). Calculations were performed on Comet at SDSC through XSEDE (CHE-170089), which is supported by NSF (ACI-1548562).
Abstract
Chemoselective cross-coupling of phenol derivatives is valuable for generating products that retain halides. Here we discuss recent developments in selective cross-couplings of chloroaryl phenol derivatives, with a particular focus on reactions of chloroaryl tosylates. The first example of a C–O-selective Ni-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura coupling of chloroaryl tosylates is discussed in detail.

44 Interestingly, a bipyridine ligand was recently shown to promote C–O-selective reaction of Ni with a chloroaryl tosylate in the presence of Pd as part of a cross-electrophile coupling; see ref. 25.
