Abstract

Cross coupling reactions between N-heterocycles and aryl halides are important for the preparations of many compounds of interest in biological, pharmaceutical and materials sciences. 1 and 2 In particular, N-arylimidazoles of pharmaceutical interest include thromboxane synthase inhibitors, 3 AMPA receptor antagonists, 4 AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitors, 5 cardiotonic agents, 6 and topical anti glaucoma agents. 7 N-Arylpyrazole is a structural element of ...
