The reaction of methyleneaziridines with o-, m-, and p-acetylpyridines proceeds very smoothly in the presence of a palladium catalyst, affording the biologically very important o-, m-, and p-pyridinylpyrrole derivatives in good to high yields. Not only ortho, meta, and para, but also related substrates, such as acetyl aromatics and hetarenes, can be used as the starting acetyl derivatives to synthesize related compounds to pyridinylpyrrole derivatives.

Eine chemoselektive Suzuki‐Miyaura‐Kupplung von primären und sekundären Alkylhalogeniden wurde unter Verwendung eines Eisen/Xantphos‐Katalysators realisiert. Die primären und sekundären Alkylbromide reagieren in guten Ausbeuten zu den Kupplungsprodukten. Auch langkettige Fettsäurederivate können synthetisiert werden (siehe Schema; acac=Acetylacetonato).

Iron-Catalyzed Alkyl-Alkyl Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling. -Magnesium tetraalkylborates prepared from olefins, BH3·Me2S, and iPrMgCl under optimized conditions are coupled with various primary and secondary alkyl bromides to give the corresponding long-chain alkanes including fatty acid derivatives. -(HATAKEYAMA, T.; HASHIMOTO, T.; KATHRIARACHCHI, K.
