Abstract:
A modular palladium-catalyzed alkenylation of a number of aryl fluorosulfonates and phenol-containing drugs such as estrone, pterostilbene, 6-hydroxyflavone, and other phenol-based pharmaceuticals has been developed. This method enables economical and chemoselective alkenylation of aryl fluorosulfonates with N-tosylhydrazones even in the presence of chloro functionalities, achieving high yields and excellent functional group compatibility. The strategy demonstrates broad application potential in the fields of pharmaceutical and agricultural chemical synthesis.

Preparation of Alkynes: Alkylation Reaction
Alkylation of terminal alkynes with primary alkyl halides in the presence of a strong base like sodium amide is one of the common methods for the synthesis of longer carbon-chain alkynes. For example, treatment of 1-propyne with sodium amide followed by reaction with ethyl bromide yields 2-pentyne.
