Abstract:This paper reports an efficient synthesis of triphenylamine (TPA) derivatives via a palladium-catalyzed Suzuki reaction of (hetero)aryl halides with 4-(diphenylamino)phenylboronic acid (DPBA) in aqueous ethanol under aerobic and ligand-free conditions. Heteroaryl halides, namely pyridyl bromides, quinolyl bromides, pyrimidinyl bromides, 2-chloropyrazine and sulfur-containing heteroaryl bromides, could react smoothly with DPBA, affording good to excellent yields under mild conditions. In addition, aryl bromides were also successfully employed in the cross-couplings with DPBA and furnished the products in high yields at room temperature. The cross-coupling of 4-bromobenzonitrile with DPBA gave the desired product in a quantitative yield within 2 min, resulting in a TOF up to 5820 h(-1).
