Abstract
An air-tolerant, simple yet highly efficient copper-catalyzed methoxylation of (hetero)aryl bromides and some activated chlorides has been developed by using copper(II) chloride/2,2-bipyridine as catalyst precursor. A wide range of (hetero)aryl bromides and electron-deficient chlorides could be efficiently methoxylated in good to excellent yields at 1-mol% catalyst loading albeit showing a functional group compatibility dependent on the electronic properties of aryl ring. Applications of the practical protocol have been demonstrated in multigram synthesis of 3,4,5-trimethoxytoluene.
期刊介绍:
All new compounds should be satisfactorily identified and proof of their structure given according to generally accepted standards. Structural reports, such as papers exclusively dealing with synthesis and characterization, analytical techniques, or X-ray diffraction studies of metal-organic or organometallic compounds will not be considered. The editors reserve the right to refuse without peer review any manuscript that does not comply with the aims and scope of the journal. Applied Organometallic Chemistry publishes Full Papers, Reviews, Mini Reviews and Communications of scientific research in all areas of organometallic and metal-organic chemistry involving main group metals, transition metals, lanthanides and actinides. All contributions should contain an explicit application of novel compounds, for instance in materials science, nano science, catalysis, chemical vapour deposition, metal-mediated organic synthesis, polymers, bio-organometallics, metallo-therapy, metallo-diagnostics and medicine. Reviews of books covering aspects of the fields of focus are also published.
