A one step procedure towards the synthesis of 4-aryl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles and 4-aryl-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazoles using Pd-catalyzed C–H bond arylations was developed.
Abstract. The palladium-catalyzed direct arylation of benzofurazans with aryl bromides to access 4-arylbenzofurazans proceeds in moderate-to-high yields using phosphine-free palladium acetate as the catalyst and potassium acetate as an inexpensive base. A wide variety of (hetero)aryl bromides, including bromopyridine and bromothiophene derivatives has been successfully employed.Palladium-catalyzed one-pot C4,C7-diarylation of benzofurazane was also described using a larger amount of aryl bromide. Moreover, the derivatization of 4-arylbenzofurazans into 4-arylquinaxolines is also reported.
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.
