Palladium-Catalyzed Fluoride-Free Cross-Coupling of Intramolecularly Activated Alkenylsilanes and Alkenylgermanes: Synthesis of Tamoxifen as a Synthetic Application

We have demonstrated that intramolecular hypercoordination of a carboxylic acid is a powerful activation strategy for the palladium‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reaction of trialkyl(vinyl)silanes and trialkyl(vinyl)germanes under fluoride‐free conditions. Z‐β‐Trialkylsilyl‐ and Z‐β‐trialkylgermylacrylic...

Description
Summary:We have demonstrated that intramolecular hypercoordination of a carboxylic acid is a powerful activation strategy for the palladium‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reaction of trialkyl(vinyl)silanes and trialkyl(vinyl)germanes under fluoride‐free conditions. Z‐β‐Trialkylsilyl‐ and Z‐β‐trialkylgermylacrylic acids, synthesized stereoselectively by olefination with ynolates, are highly stable and useful reagents for cross‐coupling with a variety of aryl iodides to provide tetrasubstituted olefins possessing different carbon substituents in a stereocontrolled and diversity‐oriented manner. An application to a stereoselective synthesis of (Z)‐tamoxifen is also reported.
