Successive Pd-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Cross-Couplings for the Modular Synthesis of Non-Symmetric Di-Aryl-Substituted Thiophenes

Oligothiophenes are important organic molecules in a number of burgeoning industries as semi-conducting materials due to their extensive π-conjugation and charge transport properties. Typically, non-symmetric, di-aryl-substituted thiophenes are prepared by the successive formation of Grignards, organotin, and/or boronic acid intermediates that can be subsequently employed in cross-coupling reactions. While reliable, these approaches present synthetic difficulties due to the reactivity of organo-metallic/pseudo-metallic species, and produce considerable amounts of waste due to necessary pre-functionalization. We have developed a decarboxylative cross-coupling route as an effective strategy for the modular and less wasteful synthesis of a wide range of non-symmetric, di-arylthiophenes. This method uses a thiophene ester building block for successive decarboxylative palladium-catalyzed couplings that allows for the efficient synthesis and evaluation of the opto-electronic properties of a library of candidate semi-conductors with functional groups that could be challenging to access using previous routes.

A study of the reactivity of 1-borodienes with nitrosoarene compounds has been carried out showing an outcome that differs according to the hybridization state of the boron moiety. Using an sp2 boron substituent, a one-pot hetero-Diels-Alder/ring contraction cascade occurred to afford N-arylpyrroles with low to good yields depending on the electronic properties of the substituents on the borodiene, whereas an sp3 boron substituent led to the formation of stable boro-oxazines with high regioselectivity in most of the cases, in moderate to good yields. 1H and 11B NMR studies on two boro-oxazine regioisomers showed that selective deprotection can be performed. Formation of either the pyrrole or the furan derivative is pH- and regioisomer-structure-dependent. The results obtained, together with previous B3LYP calculations, support mechanistic proposals which suggest that pyrrole, or furan, formation proceeds via oxazine formation, followed by a boryl rearrangement and an intramolecular addition-elimination sequence.
