Title: Mild and phosphine-free iron-catalyzed cross-coupling of nonactivated secondary alkyl halides with alkynyl Grignard reagents. Author: Cheung CW, Ren P, Hu X. Journal: Org Lett; 2014 May 02; 16(9):2566-9. PubMed ID: 24754234. Abstract: A simple protocol for iron-catalyzed cross-coupling of nonactivated secondary alkyl bromides and iodides with alkynyl Grignard reagents at room temperature has been developed. A wide range of secondary alkyl halides and terminal alkynes are tolerated to afford the substituted alkynes in good yields. A slight modification of the reaction protocol also allows for cross-coupling with a variety of primary alkyl halides.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
