Abstract

A cooperative catalytic system involving a Pd/XPhos complex and inexpensive 5-norbornene-2-carbonitrile that enables the use of alkyl tosylates as alkylating reagents in the Catellani reaction has been developed. This mild, scalable protocol is compatible with a range of readily available functionalized aryl iodides and alkyl tosylates, as well as terminating olefins (45 examples, up to 97% yield).

Key words

Catellani reaction - cooperative catalysis - alkyl tosylates - 5-norbornene-2-carbonitrile - polysubstituted arenes

24 Aryl bromides survived this reaction, but are actually reactive under the conventional Pd/XPhos conditions; see ref. 21 and: Bruno NC, Niljianskul N, Buchwald SL. J. Org. Chem. 2014; 79: 4161
