The kinetics of arylation of n-butylacrylate (n-BA) with 3-bromo-benzophenone (BBP) using a monomeric palladacycle complex [Pd(ppy)(PPh(3))(OTs)](ppy=2-phenylpyridine) catalyst has been studied. The effect of concentration of the substrate, base (NaOAc), and catalyst was studied at three different temperatures (413-433 K). The rate was found to be first order with respect to catalyst, first order tending to zero order with respect to n-butylacrylate and NaOAc concentrations. The rate passed through a maximum with variation of BBP concentration. The observed results have been explained on the basis of formation of Pd species (PdX(2), PdX(3)(-), PdX(4)(2-), and Pd(2)X(6)(2-)) which are inactive for the Heck reaction. Various empirical rate equations were considered to fit the rate data and the best fitting model has been selected. The rates predicted by model were found to be in good agreement with the observed experimental data. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Monomeric cyclopalladated complexes with NC coordination using ligands 2-phenylpyridine, 2-phenylquinoline, 8-methylquinoline have been synthesized and the structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray structure analysis. The crystal structures of monomeric palladacycles prepared using benzophenone oxime, and 2-phenylpyridine have also been determined. The use of these complexes in the Heck arylation of ethylene with 2-bromo-6-methoxynaphthalne (BMN) to give 2-vinyl-6-methoxynapthalene which is an intermediate for the synthesis of anti-inflammatory drug Naproxen has been examined and also arylation of ethylene with 3-bromo-benzophenone and 4-bromo-isobutylbenzene was investigated. These palladacycles with NC coordination show excellent catalytic activity with a TOF \> 4000 h (1). (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Transition metal free coupling reactions have gained lot of importance recently. The traditional method for the synthesis of biaryl{\textquoteright}s uses organometallic reagents for the arylation reactions. There are certain drawbacks associated with such traditional methods. Use of expensive metals, metal impurities in the products formed and disposal of metal waste generated are major problems that need to be taken care of. Thus, research has been focussed on using transition metal free catalyst for cross coupling reactions to encourage green environment and it still remains a challenge for researchers. Carbonaceous catalyst have attracted great attention recently as a heterogeneous catalyst as it has a carbon skeleton that is stable, easily separable, reusable, eco-friendly and highly economical compared to other heterogeneous catalyst. Carbonaceous catalysts have been studied in variety of organic reactions such as hydrolysis, dehydration, esterification, alkylation, condensation, oxathioketalization, dimerization, benzylation and trimethylsilylation, etc. It was estimated that - stacking interactions between carbonaceous catalyst and arenes will accelerate the coupling reaction. However to the best of our knowledge, there are no reports available in literature on use of carbonaceous catalyst for direct arylation of arenes. And thus, we developed a new method for C-H arylation of unactivated arenes with aryl halides using a transition metal free D-glucose derived carbonaceous catalyst.

A ligandless and solvent-free copper-catalyzed method for the regioselective C-H bond arylation of indoles and related heteroarenes is reported. The use of CuCl efficiently catalyzes the direct coupling of diverse heteroarenes with aryl iodides via chelation-assistance. This reaction could tolerate sensitive and structurally diverse functionalities, including halides, ethers, thioethers, amines, indolyl, pyrrolyl and carbazolyl groups. The directing group, 2-pyridinyl can be smoothly removed to generate C-2 arylated free-NH indoles, and the arylated indoles can further be functionalized into Tryptamine derivatives. Preliminary mechanistic study revealed a radical pathway for the arylation reaction.
