Synthesis of 3-(Aryl)alkenyl-β-lactams by an Efficient Application of Olefin Cross-Metathesis on Solid Support

Molecular Diversity by Olefin Cross-Metathesis on Solid Support. Generation of Libraries of Biologically Promising β-Lactam Derivatives

The application of the reagent-based diversification strategy for generation of libraries of biologically promising β-lactam derivatives is described. Key features are the versatility of the linker used and the cross-metathesis functionalization at the cleavage step. From an immobilized primary library, diversity was expanded by applying different cleavage conditions, leading to a series of cholesterol absorption inhibitor analogues together with interesting hybrid compounds through incorporation of a chalcone moiety.

Immobilized boronic acid for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling: application to the generation of pharmacologically relevant molecules

An efficient Suzuki–Miyaura coupling of immobilized boronic acid for the generation of a variety of biaryl biologically interesting derivatives is reported.

Synthesis of a Small Library of Imidazolidin-2-ones using Gold Catalysis on Solid Phase

An efficient and high-yielding solid phase synthesis of a small library of imidazolidin-2-ones and imidazol-2-ones was carried out employing a high chemo- and regioselective gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization as a key step. Polymer-supported amino acids derivatized with several alkyne functionalities combined with tosyl- and phenylureas have been subjected to gold-catalysis exhibiting exclusively C-N bond formation. The present work proves the potential of solid phase synthesis and homogeneous gold catalysis as an efficient and powerful synthetic tool for the generation of drug-like heterocycles.

Very efficient and broad-in-scope palladium-catalyzed Hiyama cross-coupling. The role of water and copper(i) salts

A very high-yielding Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling between aryl halides and aryl(trialkoxy)silanes is achieved in the presence of Cu(i) and a measured amount of water.

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of arylsiloxanes with aryl halides: application to solid-supported organic synthesis

The solid-phase version of the Pd-catalyzed Hiyama reaction between a variety of aryltriethoxysilanes and immobilized aryl halides was developed. Smooth cross-coupling was achieved to afford the corresponding biaryl products in moderate to excellent yields. The described protocol would be particularly useful for the construction of 4'-substituted 1,1'-biphenyl derivatives.

Biopolymer-supported ionic-liquid-phase ruthenium catalysts for olefin metathesis

Original ruthenium supported ionic liquid phase (SILP) catalysts based on alginates as supports were developed for olefin metathesis reactions. The marine biopolymer, which fulfills most of the requisite properties for a support such as widespread abundance, insolubility in the majority of organic solvents, a high affinity for ionic liquids, high chemical stability, biodegradability, low cost, and easy processing, was impregnated by [bmim][PF6 ] containing an ionically tagged ruthenium catalyst. These biosourced catalysts show promising performances in ring-closing metathesis (RCM) and cross-metathesis (CM) reactions, with a high level of recyclability and reusability combined with a good reactivity.
