Catellani reaction

The Catellani reaction was discovered by Marta Catellani (Università degli Studi di Parma, Italy) and co-workers in 1997.[1][2] The reaction uses aryl iodides to perform bi- or tri-functionalization, including C-H functionalization of the unsubstituted ortho position(s), followed a terminating cross-coupling reaction at the ipso position. This cross-coupling cascade reaction depends on the ortho-directing transient mediator, norbornene.

Original and general reaction conditions for the Catellani reaction. PNP2 = cis,exo-2-phenylnorbornyl palladium chloride dimer

Reaction mechanism

The Catellani reaction is catalyzed by palladium and norbornene, although in most cases superstochiometric amounts of norbornene to deduce reaction time.[3] Palladium(0) oxidatively inserts in to aryl-iodide bond. Once carbopallation with the norbornene, the structure of the norbornylpalladium intermediate does not allow for ß-hydride elimination in either of the ß-positions due to Bredt's Rule over bridgehead proton and the trans-configuration of the palladium and ß-proton.[4] Thereafter, the Pd(II) species undergoes electrophilic cyclopalladation at the ortho position. The second oxidative addition occurs with the corresponding coupling partner to form a Pd(IV) intermediate, which then reductively eliminates and completes the first cross-coupling bond formation. After the elimination of norbornene, the Pd(II) species undergoes the second cross-coupling reaction, terminating the series with a number of traditional palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions.[5]

Catalytic cycle of the Catellani reaction.[6] (Ligands and stereochemistry are omitted for clarity.)

Steps of the Catellani reaction:

  1. Oxidative addition
  2. Carbopalladation of norbornene
  3. Palladacycle formation
  4. Oxidative addition to palladacycle
  5. Reductive elimination from palladacycle
  6. Norbornene extrusion
  7. Termination via Heck reaction, Suzuki reaction, etc.

Ortho and ipso cross-coupling partners

The Catellani reaction facilitates a variety of C—C and C—N bond-forming reactions at the ortho position. These include alkylation from alkyl halides,[1] arylation from aryl bromides,[7] amination from benzyloxyamines,[8][9][10][11] acylation from anhydrides.[12][13] Likewise in the case of terminating ipso coupling partners with Heck-type termination with olefins,[1] Suzuki-type reaction with boronic esters,[8] borylation with bis(pinacolato)diboron,[9] protonation with i-PrOH,[10] decarboxylative alkynylation with alkynyl carboxylic acids.[11]

Uses

With tethered cross-coupling partners, Lautens, Malacria, and Catellani used this reaction to construct a variety of fused ring systems since 2000.[5] The Catellani reaction has been used as a key step for the total synthesis (+)-linoxepin,[14] rhazinal,[15] aspidospermidine,[16] and (±)-goniomitine.[16]
