| Popis: |
The first Pd-catalyzed arylation of aza-Achmatowicz rearrangement products with arylboronic acids is achieved, providing versatile 2-aryldihydropyridinones for facile synthesis of highly functionalized 2-arylpiperidines. Key to this arylation is the use of non-phosphine-ligand palladium precatalyst. The substrate scope is demonstrated with >26 examples, and the utility of 2-aryldihydropyridinones is illustrated by the synthesis of a small collection of 2-arylpiperidines with substituents or functional groups at any carbon (C2-C6) as well as two NK1 receptor antagonists (+)-CP-999,94 and (+)-L-733,060. |
