Die Stille-Reaktion ist eine der sehr wenigen Reaktionen, in denen unter milden Bedingungen Kohlenstoff-Kohlenstoff-Bindungen geknüpft werden können. Man verwendet die Reaktion häufig in der Synthese komplizierter Moleküle zur Verknüpfung größerer Molekülbausteine. Die Autoren diskutieren vom präparativen Standpunkt aus Grenzen, Einflüsse, strukturelle Effekte und die Wahl der geeigneten Reaktionsbedingungen. Mit ausführlichen Vorschriften und vielen Beispielen. (11/98)

This book summarizes 100 essential mechanisms in organic chemistry ranging from classical such as the Reformatsky Reaction from 1887 to recently elucidated mechanism such as the copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. The reactions are easy to grasp, well-illustrated and underpinned with explanations and additional information.

Palladium-Catalyzed Modification of Nucleosides, Nucleotides and Oligonucleotides describes the procedures and protocols related to the modification of nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides via Pd-mediated cross-coupling processes. The book highlights the growing area of nucleic acid modification and how Pd-mediated coupling reactions can assist this development. Users will find key synthetic protocols for these reactions in this latest volume in the Latest Trends in Palladium Chemistry series. As most of the research in the field of antiviral agents has centered on the use of modified nucleosides that have exhibited promising activity, this book provides an up-to-date reference for both professionals in industry and other interested parties. - Provides synthetic routes for useful nucleoside molecules, information otherwise found only through time-consuming literature searches - Covers metal-mediated and metal-catalyzed cross coupling processes of nucleosides and related compounds - Includes Suzuki-Miyaura, Stille and Sonogashira reactions, as well as C-H bond functionalization - Highlights the growing area of nucleic acid modification and how Pd-mediated coupling reactions can assist

“Applied Cross-Coupling Reactions” provides students and teachers of advanced organic chemistry with an overview of the history, mechanisms and applications of cross-coupling reactions. Since the discovery of the transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions in 1972, numerous synthetic uses and industrial applications have been developed. The mechanistic studies of the cross-coupling reactions have disclosed that three fundamental reactions: oxidative addition, transmetalation, and reductive elimination, are involved in a catalytic cycle. Cross-coupling reactions have allowed us to produce a variety of compounds for industrial purposes, such as natural products, pharmaceuticals, liquid crystals and conjugate polymers for use in electronic devices. Indeed, the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2010 was awarded for work on cross-coupling reactions. In this book, the recent trends in cross-coupling reactions are also introduced from the point of view of synthesis design and catalytic activities of transition-metal catalysts.

In this Special Issue, recent advances in cross-coupling reactions are presented in the form of original research articles, reviews, and short communications. These contributions cover different topics in this area, including novel coupling reactions, reaction conditions, synthetic alternatives, metal ligands, and applications for new pharmaceutical compounds and organic materials. In particular, the reviews deal with methodologies such as the synthesis of diarylketones through palladium catalysis and the most relevant examples of Suzuki–Miyaura and Buchwald–Hartwig coupling reactions in the synthesis of bioactive compounds. The synthetic utility of cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of medium-size rings and the utility of Stille and Suzuki coupling reactions for the synthesis of new molecular machines based on sterically hindered anthracenyl trypticenyl units are also summarized. The original research articles present the synthesis of 2-alkynylpyrrols by inverse Sonogashira coupling and the synthesis of indoles under oxidative dearomative cross-dehydrogenative conditions. The efficient combination of iridium-catalyzed C–H borylation of aryl halides with the Sonogashira coupling and a sequential iridium-catalyzed borylation of NH-free pyrroles followed by a Suzuki–Miyaura reaction are included. The synthesis of aryl propionic acids, a common structural motif in medicinal chemistry, and the synthesis of new organic dyes are also covered.

Synthetic Methods in Drug Discovery Volume 1 focusses on the hugely important area of transition metal mediated methods used in industry. Current methods of importance such as the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, Buchwald-Hartwig couplings and CH activation are discussed. In addition, exciting emerging areas such as decarboxylative coupling, and the uses of iron and nickel in coupling reactions are also covered. This book provides both academic and industrial perspectives on some key reactions giving the reader an excellent overview of the techniques used in modern synthesis. Reaction types are conveniently framed in the context of their value to industry and the challenges and limitations of methodologies are discussed with relevant illustrative examples. Edited and authored by leading scientists from both academia and industry, this book will be a valuable reference for all chemists involved in drug discovery as well as postgraduate students in medicinal chemistry.
