An active and stable magnetically separable Pd nanocatalyst was prepared and characterized. The nanocatalyst exhibited excellent activities and reusabilities in aqueous phase processes including the O-arylation of phenols and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions. The proposed protocol features mild reaction conditions and an extraordinary simplicity and efficiency using NaOH as base in water. † Electronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See
In this article, we report three odorless methods for the thioarylation and thioalkylation of different nitroarenes using alkyl halides (Br, Cl), triphenyltin chloride, and arylboronic acids as the coupling partners. Triphenyltin chloride is capable of delivering all of its phenyl groups to the product. Depending on the reaction, sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate (Na2S2O3·5H2O), S8/KF, and S8/NaOH systems are found to be effective sources of sulfur in the presence of copper salts. The use of green solvents, inexpensive catalysts, and user-friendly starting materials has made these methods interesting from a green chemistry standpoint.
In this article, we have presented a novel, efficient and environmentally benign method for one-pot, one-step and odorless synthesis of a wide range of unsymmetrical sulfides from the reaction of aryl/benzyl/alkyl halides with aryl boronic acids in the presence of S 8 , NaOH and a catalytic amount of CuI in PEG200 as green solvent at 40-60 C. The products were obtained in moderate to excellent yields. More importantly, this reaction is applicable for the gram-scale preparation of the desired sulfides.Scheme 1 Approaches to C-S bond formation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
