✦ Synopsis
We report the synthesis of a novel class of planar chiral bidentate aryl[2.2]paracyclophane ligands. For the first time in the [2.2]paracyclophanyl series the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling was employed for the formation of the arylparacyclophanyl skeleton. From the two possible approaches: (a) cross-coupling of [2.2]paracyalophanylboronic acids with aryl halides; (b) cross-coupling of [2.2]paracyclophanyl halides with arylboronic acids, the latter was found to be more efficient. This approach was successfully used for the synthesis of a wide range of aryl[2.2]paracyclophanes with different types of substitution patterns (ortho-, pseudo-ortho-or pseudo-gem-arrangement of the functionally-substituted aryl fragment with respect to the substituent in the paracyclophane ring).
