Regiocontrol in the Heck-reaction and fast fluorous chemistry

<p>The palladium-catalysed Heck-reaction has been utilised in organic synthesis, where the introduction of aryl groups at the internal, β<i>-</i>carbon of different allylic substrates has been achieved with high regioselectivity.</p><p>The β<i>-</i>stabilising effect of silicon enhances the regiocontrol in the internal arylation of allyltrimethylsilane, while a coordination between palladium and nitrogen induces very high regioselectivities in the arylation of <i>N,N-</i>dialkylallylamines and the Boc-protected allylamine, producing β-arylated arylethylamines, which are of interest for applications in medicinal chemistry. Phthalimido-protected allylamines are arylated with poor to moderate regioselectivity.</p><p>Single-mode microwave heating can reduce the reaction times of Heck-, Stille- and radical mediated reactions drastically from approximately 20 hours to a few minutes with, in the majority of cases, retained, high regioselectivity.</p><p>The use of heavily fluorinated tin reagents, which proved to be unreactive under thermal heating, is shown to be applicable with microwave-heating and the high fluorous content of the products is utilised with the aim of improving and simplifying the work-up procedure.</p>
