Abstract
This work has focussed on the preparation of functionalized heterocyclic organometallics. In the first part, functionalized zinc derivatives were used due to their high functional group tolerance. Thus various thymine derivatives have been prepared both in solution and on the solid phase. Alternatively, a new route to functionalized heterocyclic Grignard reagents was developed using a low-temperature halogen-magnesium exchange. Ester, amide and nitrile functions are tolerated and the resulting organomagnesium derivatives could be reacted with various electrophiles. Finally, we have attempted to perform low-temperature cross-coupling reactions using these functionalized Grignard reagents. 5.1- Synthesis of thymine derivatives Zincated thymine derivative 2 was prepared by zinc insertion from the corresponding bromide 4, readily available in four steps from uracil. Negishi cross-coupling reactions were then performed using zinc reagent 2 and various aryl iodides.

Functional groups such as ester, amide or nitrile functions are tolerated in this process. N I FG 1) i-PrMgBr -40 °C 2) E+ N E FG 50-92 % FG = Br, CONR2, CN, CO2R etc. Scheme 69. Preparation of functionalised pyridines using a low temperature iodine-magnesium exchange. The bromine-magnesium exchange is less general than the iodine magnesium-exchange and electron withdrawing groups are often necessary to accelerate the exchange reaction. However, 2-bromo and 3-bromopyridine were suitable substrates due to the π deficient character of these heterocycles. N Br 1) i-PrMgBr THF, rt, 6 h 2) E+ N E 72-75 % Scheme 70.
