lene, and butyne in the presence of PPh3 and CuI in an<br />
anhydrous mixture of triethylamine and acetonitrile (Table<br />
47). Remarkably, the yields of products are higher than those<br />
reported under some homogeneous Pd(0) catalysis. Thus Pd/<br />
C-PPh3-CuI has been developed as an efficient catalytic<br />
system for Sonogashira coupling reactions. This system can<br />
also be applied in the synthesis of some ethynylpyridines<br />
(Table 47, entries 8, 9). Interestingly, 2-bromopyridine172 could be coupled with 2-(3-hydroxy-3-methyl-but-1-ynyl)substituted<br />
pyridines 117 and 118 to form dipyridylethynes<br />
119 and 120. The 2-hydroxy-2-propyl groups are split off<br />
<strong>by</strong> Grob fragmentation under the basic conditions (reflux in<br />
NaOH/Et3N/MeCN) (Scheme 34).<br />

Pd/C catalysis is useful for the Sonogashira coupling of<br />
s-triazines 121 173 and in the pyran-2-one series 174 where<br />
chloride or bromide, respectively, served as leaving groups<br />
(Tables 48 and 49).<br />

tertiary amine as base was particularly useful for the facile<br />
isolation of polar nucleoside coupling products obtained from<br />
iodonucleosides with protected propargyl amines (Table<br />
50). 175<br />
A selective coupling with various alkynes was achieved<br />
in the 4-position of 5-bromo-4-chloropyrimidines 125 (Scheme<br />
35). 176 The remaining bromo substituent could be exchanged<br />
<strong>by</strong> a second alkyne within a subsequent Sonogashira<br />
coupling. Position 5 was attacked first <strong>by</strong> Sonogashira<br />
reaction of corresponding 4-chloro-5-iodopyrimidines. 176<br />
4.1.2. In Organic Solvent/Water Mixtures<br />
Organic solvent/water mixtures provide a generally useful,<br />
robust, and efficient medium for Pd/C-catalyzed Sonogashira<br />
couplings. K2CO3 is usually used in these cases. Thus DMEwater<br />
was used to couple aryl iodides and bromides bearing<br />
either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents<br />
(Table 51). 177,178<br />
This methodology could also be applied to heteroaromatic<br />
halides and triflates178,179 providing excellent yields of<br />
coupling products 127 (Table 52).<br />
It was further used as the key step to synthesize the<br />
enantiomerically pure (S)-5-ethynyl-3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)-pyridine<br />
130 (SIB-1508Y) as a novel enantiopure<br />
nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist (Scheme 36). 178-179,180<br />
The coupling of N-propargyl amino acids 131 with aryl<br />
or heteroaryl bromides provides an easy access to unnatural<br />
R-amino acids 132, which could be further hydrogenated to<br />
133 (Scheme 37). 181 It should be mentioned that none of the<br />
typical conditions of homogeneous sources of Pd(0) [Pd-<br />
(PPh3)2Cl2, Pd(PPh3)4, Pd2(dba)3] were successful to synthesize<br />
the pyridine cross-coupling product 132 (Ar ) 3-pyridyl).
