General description

Mechanism of the fluoride-free, palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of 2-iodothiophene with potassium (E)-heptenyldimethylsilanolate has been investigated. 2-Iodothiophene participates in microwave-enhanced, rapid homogeneous-phase version of the Sonogashira reaction.

Application

2-Iodothiophene was used in the synthesis of (E)-and (Z)-2,3-difluoro-3-aryl substituted acrylic esters. It was also used as monomer in the preparation of thin conductive films via plasma polymerization of 2-iodothiophene.

The mechanism of the fluoride-free, palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of potassium (E)-heptenyldimethylsilanolate, K(+)(E)-1(-), with 2-iodothiophene has been investigated through kinetic analysis. The order of each component was determined by plotting the initial rates of the reaction against concentration. These data provided

A microwave-enhanced, rapid and efficient homogeneous-phase version of the Sonogashira reaction is presented. It has been applied to the coupling of aryl iodides, bromides, triflates, and aryl chloride, as well as pyridine and thiophene derivatives with trimethylsilylacetylene. Excellent yields (80-95%)

[reaction: see text] The (Z)-2,3-difluoro-3-stannylacrylic ester is readily prepared from (Z)-1,2-difluorovinyltriethylsilane via stereospecific stannyl/silyl exchange with KF/(Bu3Sn)2O or Bu3SnCl in DMF at 70 degrees C. The corresponding (E)-2,3-difluoro-3-stannylacrylate is prepared by stereospecific carbonylation of (E)-1,2-difluorovinyl iodide followed by low temperature/in
