Andrew published the artcile< Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Cyanohydrins with Aryl Bromides: Construction of Biaryl Ketones>, Name: 3-Bromo-5-methylbenzaldehyde, the main research area is biaryl ketone preparation; cyanohydrin aryl bromide coupling palladium catalyst.
The palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of the lithium anion of aryl tert-butyldimethylsilyl-protected cyanohydrins Ar1CH(CN)OTBS (Ar1 = C6H5, 4-FC6H4, 3-CH3OC6H4, etc.) with aryl bromides Ar2Br (Ar2 = Ph, 2-cyano-3-methylphenyl, 3-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl, etc.) followed by in situdeprotection with fluoride ion provides a convenient and versatile approach to biaryl ketones Ar1C(O)Ar2. This protocol represents the first example of a palladium-catalyzed arylation of a cyanohydrin, which functions as an acyl anion equivalent Hence, in contrast to classical cross-coupling reactions, the pronucleophile component is incorporated in the product to permit further functionalization. The synthetic utility of the new method with applications to bioactive biaryl ketones and the construction of a triaryl diketone that has been used to prepare an extended tetrathiafulvalene have been described.
