Title: Introduction of Cyclopropyl and Cyclobutyl Ring on Alkyl Iodides through Cobalt-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling. Author: Andersen C, Ferey V, Daumas M, Bernardelli P, Guérinot A, Cossy J. Journal: Org Lett; 2019 Apr 05; 21(7):2285-2289. PubMed ID: 30896173. Abstract: A cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling between alkyl iodides and cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, and alkenyl Grignard reagents is disclosed. The reaction allows the introduction of strained rings on a large panel of primary and secondary alkyl iodides. The catalytic system is simple and nonexpensive, and the reaction is general, chemoselective, and diastereoconvergent. The alkene resulting from the cross-coupling can be transformed to substituted cyclopropanes using a Simmons-Smith reaction. The formation of radical intermediates during the coupling is hypothesized.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
