Kolotaev,Razinov,Khachatryan
, p. 993 - 999 (2018)
This article describes the investigation of the cross-coupling Ullman's reaction of aryl halides under various conditions to find optimal scalable method of biaryl synthesis and the development of preparative methods of synthesizing 3,3'-bitolyl and perfluorobipfenyl, which are valuable semi-products of organic synthesis.
Selective reductive defluorination of dicyclohexyl compounds: Intramolecular coupling reaction by reductive cleavage of C-F bonds
Sung, Kuangsen,Lagow, Richard J.
, p. 637 - 638 (1998)
Reductive defluorination of perfluoro(dicyclohexyl ether) 1 with benzophenone anion radical in tetrahydrofuran produces perfluoro(dibenzofuran) 2 with a surprising ring-closure, whereas reductive defluorination of perfluoro(dicyclohexyl) 4 under the same conditions gives perfluoro(diphenyl) 6 with no products involving ring-closure.

Abstract: Thermal properties of decafluorodiphenyl disulfide in the pure state and in the presence of copper and iron metals have been studied. A procedure has been proposed for the synthesis of symmetrical poly-fluorinated diaryl sulfides from diaryl dis

We present a Pt-catalyzed direct coupling of benzene to biphenyl. This catalytic reaction employs a cyclometalated platinum(ii) complex [PtMe(bhq)(SMe2)] (bhq = benzo[h]quinolate) with PhI(OAc)2 as an oxidant and does not require an acid, a co-catalyst or a solvent. The reaction kinetics and characterization of potential catalytic species are reported. The reaction is first-order in Pt and second-order in benzene, which implicates the second C-H activation step as rate-determining. A Pt(ii)/Pt(iv) catalytic cycle is suggested. The reaction commences by oxidation of the Pt(ii) complex to give the platinum(iv) species [Pt(bhq)(SMe2)(OAc)2](OAc) followed by C-H activation of benzene to afford the intermediate [PtPh(bhq)(SMe2)(OAc)](OAc) concurrently with the release of HOAc. A second benzene molecule reacts similarly to give the diphenyl intermediate [PtPh2(bhq)(SMe2)](OAc). C-C bond forming reductive elimination ensues to regenerate Pt(ii) and complete the catalytic cycle. The proposed mechanism has been examined by DFT computations, which provide support to experimental findings.

C-C reductive elimination from [PdL2(C6F5)2] to form polyfluorinated biaryls has been a challenge for over 50 years. Thus, palladium-catalyzed homocoupling of arylboronates (ArF-Bpin) containing two ortho-fluorine substituents is very difficult, as the reaction typically stops at the [PdL2(ArF)2] stage after two transmetalation steps. The transmetalated complexes cis-[Pd(MeCN)2(C6F5)2] (3a), cis-[Pd(MeCN)2(2,4,6-C6F3H2)2] (3b), and cis-[Pd(MeCN)2(2,6-C6F2H3)2] (3e) have been isolated from the reaction of ArF-Bpin with Pd(OAc)2 in acetonitrile solvent, with no homocoupling observed. However, catalytic homocoupling proceeds smoothly in a "weakly coordinating" arene solvent as long as no ancillary ligands or coordinating solvents are present. DFT computations reveal that the active catalyst formed by arene solvent coordination leads to an overall reduced barrier for the reductive elimination step compared to the formation of stable [PdL2(ArF)2] complexes in the presence of a donor ligand or solvent L.
