Abstract
The Suzuki–Miyaura reaction is one of the most powerful tools for the formation of carbon–carbon bonds in organic synthesis. The utilization of alcohols in this powerful reaction is a challenging task. This short review covers progress in the transition-metal-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura-type cross-coupling reaction of π-activated alcohol, such as aryl, benzylic, allylic, propargylic and allenic alcohols, between 2000 and June 2019. 1 Introduction 2 Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reactions of Aryl Alcohols 2.1 One-Pot Reactions with Pre-activation of the C–O Bond 2.1.1 Palladium Catalysis 2.1.2 Nickel Catalysis 2.2 Direct Activation of the C–O Bond 2.2.1 Nickel Catalysis 3 Suzuki–Miyaura-Type Cross-Coupling Reactions of Benzylic Alcohols 4 Suzuki–Miyaura-Type Cross-Coupling Reactions of Allylic Alcohols 4.1 Rhodium Catalysis 4.2 Palladium Catalysis 4.3 Nickel Catalysis 4.4 Stereospecific Reactions 4.5 Stereoselective Reactions 4.6 Domino Reactions 5 Suzuki–Miyaura-Type Cross-Coupling Reactions of Propargylic Alcohols 5.1 Palladium Catalysis 5.2 Rhodium Catalysis 6 Suzuki–Miyaura-Type Cross-Coupling Reactions of Allenic Alcohols 6.1 Palladium Catalysis 6.2 Rhodium Catalysis 7 Conclusions
