Resumen:
e have studied the Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of organoheteroatom stannanes containing elements of the groups 15 (P, As, Sb) and 16 (Se) with 1-naphthyltriflate (3). The stannanes n-Bu3SnZPhn (Z = P, As, Sb, Se; n = 1-2) were synthesized by the reaction of the PhnZ- anion with n-Bu3SnCl. The cross-coupling reactions of these stannanes with 3 in a one-pot procedure afforded the C-heteroatom products PhnZ-1-Naph in good yields for Z = As, Se, (90 and 70% yield, respectively) and moderate yields for Z = P (51% yield). Only 18% of 1-naphthyldiphenylstibine was obtained. Optimization studies revealed that the combination of LiCl and free PPh3 ligand proved to be particularly effective in enhancing the coupling reaction.
