Di(2-picolyl)amine Ligands for Reductive Cross-Electrophile Coupling Reaction

In discovery research on small molecule drugs, drug designs with high sp3 carbon content are preferred in order to improve flat structures, metabolic stability, hydrophilicity, off-target effect and so on.1) Furthermore, replacement of benzene cores with the bioisosteres, which is benzene equivalents containing rich sp3 carbons is popular.2) When carrying out such research, C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross coupling reactions are very powerful methods. These reactions enable direct introduction of alkyl groups into aromatic core. Recently, various methods not relying on organometallic reagents have been reported, in which alkyl halides, alkyl carboxylic acids etc. are used as alkyl sources. Especially, the cross coupling reactions between aryl halides and alkyl halides are known as reductive cross-electrophile coupling reactions (CEC, XEC), which attract a lot of attentions from a view point of availability and stability of alkyl halides.3) In addition, by achieving difficult introduction of alkyl groups it can be expected to create novel bioactive compounds.

Methylbis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine

Bidentate ligands such as bipyridyl derivatives have been widely used for nickel catalysis in the conventional reductive cross-electrophile coupling reactions.4) However, due to synthetic complexities, it is not easy to tune their steric and electronic properties. On the other hand, di(2-picolyl)amine (DPA) ligands can be sterically and electronically modified by optimizing the alkyl groups on nitrogen atom and substituents on pyridine rings.5) We offer three DPA ligands for reductive cross-electrophile coupling reactions.

Methylbis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine
1-(4-Methoxy-3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)-N-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methyl]-N-methylmethanamine
N,N-Bis[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methyl]cyclopropanamine

Comparison of bipyridyl ligand and di(2-picoly)amine ligand

When DPA ligands are used as catalysts for reductive cross-electrophile coupling reactions, it is reported that better results can be obtained than the standard ligand, dtbbpy (Product No. D3134). In general, substituents on pyridine ring of DPA ligands favor electron rich groups and substituents on nitrogen atom give better results. In particular, it is known that secondary alkyl bromides such as heterocyclic alkyl bromides and etc. than primary alkyl bromides. DPA ligands have been found to improve the product yields from some substrates. In addition, our products are useful for late-stage functionalization, parallel library synthesis and high-throughput experiments (HTE) in the drug discovery research.
