Abstract

A mild and efficient copper-catalyzed system for the coupling of aryl iodides and thiols was developed using a readily prepared and highly stable oxime–phosphine oxide ligand. Good to excellent yields were obtained.

    Among transition metals, copper based catalysts have gained significant attention of chemists as cheap and environmentally benign metalto design new methodology for the C–S cross coupling reaction. Accordingly, Several copper based homogeneous catalysts have been reported but most of these copper catalysed Ullmann type C–S cross coupling reaction involve use of ligands such as phosphazene [35], ethylene glycol [36,37], neocuproine [38], N–methylglycine [39], oxime–phosphine oxide ligand [40], tripod ligand [41], benzotriazole [42], 1,2 diaminocyclohexane [43,44], β-ketoester [45,46], l-Proloine [47], and BINAM [48]. Recently, Peters and his group have developed UV light promoted CuI catalysed C–S bond formation [49].

    Citation Excerpt :

    Some significant samples of bioactive thioethers used as drug candidates for different diseases have been indicated in Fig. 1. Some of the transition and noble metals such as copper [7], nickel [8,9], cobalt-based catalytic systems [10] and palladium [11] have been studied for the C-S bond cross-coupling reactions. While the homogeneous catalyst system functions create a higher level of activity in reactions compared to heterogeneous catalysts, issues such as purifying of the products and losing their catalytic activity through accumulation, are problems that can be created by using this kind of catalysts.

    The high cost, low turnover numbers, and sensitivity to air are the limitations of Pd catalysts which restrict the application of these catalysts in large scale preparations. Thus considerable attention has been focused on exploring new catalytic systems in which several transition metal catalysts like palladium [29–37], nickel [38–42], cobalt [43,44], copper [45–50], rhodium [51], indium [52], iron [53–55] and zinc [56] serve as the metal sources along with appropriate ligands have emerged in recent years. In continuation of our efforts in iron catalyzed coupling reactions [57–59], we propose an efficient iron catalyzed CS coupling reaction with l-proline ligand.
