PdII-catalysed ortho-arylation of benzylic heterocycles with arylboronic acid pinacol esters (Ar-BPin) via directed C-H bond activation to generate the desired biaryl products is reported. This methodology is efficient and applicable to a wide range of functionalised Ar-BPin and benzylic heterocycles, allowing the direct synthesis of important biaryl motifs in modest to good yield.

Zinc-catalyzed chemoselective reduction of tertiary and secondary amides to amines

General and convenient procedures for the catalytic hydrosilylation of secondary and tertiary amides under mild conditions have been developed. In the presence of inexpensive zinc catalysts, tertiary amides are easily reduced by applying monosilanes. Key to success for the reduction of the secondary amides is the use of zinc triflate and disilanes with dual Si-H moieties. The presented hydrosilylations proceed with excellent chemoselectivity in the presence of sensitive ester, nitro, azo, nitrile, olefins, and other functional groups, thus making the method attractive for organic synthesis.
