A palladium-catalyzed reductive coupling between N-tosylhydrazones and aryl bromides has been developed. The reaction provides an efficient method for the synthesis of diarylmethanes and triarylmethanes via the formation of C(sp2)-C(sp3) single bonds. This new methodology for the synthesis of diarylmethanes and triarylmethanes is featured by the ready availability of the starting materials, mild reaction conditions, and the tolerance of wide range of functional groups. The reaction follows a pathway including palladium carbene formation, migratory insertion, and reduction of the alkylpalladium(II) intermediate.

Although metal-catalyzed direct arylation reactions of non- or weakly acidic C-H bonds have recently received much attention, chemists have relied heavily on substrates with appropriately placed directing groups to steer reactivity. To date, examples of intermolecular arylation of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds in the absence of a directing group remain scarce. We report herein the first general, high-yielding, and scalable method for palladium-catalyzed C(sp3)-H arylation of simple diarylmethane derivatives with aryl bromides at room temperature. This method facilitates access to a variety of sterically and electronically diverse hetero- and nonheteroaryl-containing triarylmethanes, a class of compounds with various applications and interesting biological activity. Key to the success of this approach is an in situ metalation of the substrate via C-H deprotonation under catalytic cross-coupling conditions, which is referred to as a deprotonative-cross-coupling process (DCCP). Base and catalyst identification were performed by high-throughput experimentation (HTE) and led to a unique base/catalyst combination [KN(SiMe3)2/Pd-NiXantphos] that proved to efficiently promote the room-temperature DCCP of diarylmethanes. Additionally, the DCCP exhibits remarkable chemoselectivity in the presence of substrates that are known to undergo O-, N-, enolate-, and C(sp2)-H arylation.
