RESUMEN
A general and efficient directed ortho metalation (DoM)-halogen dance (HD)-electrophile quench sequence for the synthesis of trisubstituted pyridyl O-carbamates is described. A second HD sequence furnishes highly functionalized tetrasubstituted pyridines. Furthermore, a hitherto unobserved double HD rearrangement is reported. Under similar LDA conditions, aromatic O-carbamates with OMe, Cl, and F substituents (4a-c) undergo either a HD-electrophile quench sequence, 4a-c --> 18-20, or a HD-anionic ortho Fries rearrangement, 4a-c --> 6a-c, respectively.

A general method for the synthesis of azabiaryls 19a-t by a one-pot procedure involving a Directed ortho metalation (DoM)-boronation-Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling sequence is described. Aside from the three isomeric pyridyl carboxamides 15a-c, chloro-, fluoro-, and O-carbamoyl pyridines are adapted to this method providing a range of azabiaryls (Table 2). The method has an advantage in that it avoids the recognized difficult isolation of pyridyl boronic acids and their instability toward deboronation. The efficient synthesis of hydroxypicolinamides 12-14 (Scheme 3) by a one-pot metalation-boronation-oxidation sequence with the LDA-B(OiPr)3 in situ procedure that avoids self-condensation of incipient ortho-metalated species (Scheme 2) is delineated. The conversion of azabiaryls 19b,e,h,l into azafluorenones 20b,e,h,l by a directed remote metalation protocol is demonstrated (Table 3). A comprehensive survey of pyridyl boronates, of considerable interest in contemporary heterocyclic synthetic chemistry, is given (Figure 1).
