Stereospecific Cross-Coupling of α-(Thiocarbamoyl)organostannanes with Alkenyl, Aryl, and Heteroaryl Iodides

Abstract
Racemic and scalemic PTC-protected α-hydroxystannanes cross-couple with alkenyl/aryl/heteroaryl iodides in moderate to good yields using copper(I) thiophene-2-carboxylate (CuTC) in THF at or below room temperature. Simple aryl iodides and 1-iodocyclohexene, two classes of electrophiles that typically react sluggishly, are also good substrates. Cross-couplings proceed with retention of configuration at the alkenyl- and stannyl-substituted stereocenters.
