Abstract:

Abstract In this paper, five novel dodecyl-substituted hydrazide-pyridine-N-oxide ligands were designed and synthesized as the ligands and phase-transfer catalyst for the N-arylation reaction of nitrogen-containing heterocycles and aromatic iodides. The catalytic activities of substituted hydrazide-pyridine-N-oxides, copper source, alkali, reaction time and temperature were optimized and the optimum reaction conditions were established. Under these conditions, the imidazole could be arylated smoothly with various aryl iodides to provide the corresponding products in the yields of 60%—92%. In the reaction, water was used as the reaction solvent and the long chain alkyl-substituted hydrazide-pyridine-N-oxide acts as a copper catalyst ligand and phase-transfer catalyst.

Key words: Dodecyl substituted hydrazide-pyridine-N-oxide, C—N coupling, Aryl halide, Copper catalyst
