Polystyrene-Supported Acyclic Diaminocarbene Palladium Complexes in Sonogashira Cross-Coupling: Stability vs. Catalytic Activity

Two types of immobilized on the amino-functionalized polystyrene-supported acyclic diaminocarbene palladium complexes (ADC-PdII) are investigated under Sonogashira cross-coupling conditions. Depending on substituents in the diaminocarbene fragment immobilized ADC-PdII, systems are found to have different catalytic activity and stability regarding Pd-leaching. PdII-diaminocarbenes possessing protons at both nitrogen atoms smoothly decompose into Pd0-containing species providing a catalytic “cocktail system” with high activity and ability to reuse within nine runs. Polymer-supported palladium (II) complex bearing NBn–Ccarbene–NH-moiety exhibits greater stability while noticeably lower activity under Sonogashira cross-coupling. Four molecular ADC-PdII complexes are also synthesized and investigated with the aim of confirming proposed base-promoted pathway of ADC-PdII conversion through carbodiimide into an active Pd0 forms.

Novel Multicomponent Synthesis of Pyridine-Pyrimidines and Their Bis-Derivatives Catalyzed by Triazine Diphosphonium Hydrogen Sulfate Ionic Liquid Supported on Functionalized Nanosilica

In this Research Article, we report an efficient synthesis of 1,3-dimethyl-5-aryl-7-(pyridine-3(2)(4)-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones via a three-component reaction of aryl aldehydes, 1,3-dimethyl-6-aminouracil and carbonitriles in the presences of triazine diphosphonium hydrogen sulfate ionic liquid supported on functionalized nanosilica (APTADPHS-nSiO₂) as a reusable catalyst under microwave irradiation and solvent-free conditions. The bis-derivatives of pyridine-pyrimidines were also efficiently prepared from dialdehydes and dinitriles. In addition, 3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-amine was used successfully instead of 1,3-dimethyl-6-aminouracil under the same conditions to afford the corresponding products in high yields. The catalyst can be reused at least five times without any significant loss of its activity. The easy recovery, reusability and excellent activity of the catalyst as well as easy workup are other noteworthy advantages of this method.
