Abstract:

A general procedure for the stereocontrolled synthesis of (E)-stilbene derivatives by palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of (E)-2-phenylethenylboronic acid pinacol ester with aryl bromides was investigated. (E)-2-Phenylethenylboronic acid pinacol ester was prepared by 9-BBN-catalyzed hydroboration of phenylacetylene with pinacolborane. This reagent undergoes facile palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling with a diverse set of aryl bromides to provide the corresponding (E)-stilbene derivatives in moderate to good yield. The use of the sterically bulky t-Bu3PHBF4 ligand was crucial to the successful coupling of electron-rich and electron-poor aryl bromides. Complete stereochemical retention of the (E)-2-phenylethenylboronic acid pinacol ester alkene geometry was observed in all of the (E)-stilbene derivatives synthesized.
