An efficient and practical synthesis of natural moracins, which have diverse range of biological properties including anticancer, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities, has been achieved using $Pd(OAc)_2/P(^tBu)_3-HBF_4$ as a Sonogashira coupling reagent which solved the unreactive problems in case of higher electron density of haloaryl compounds in the reaction. Lowering electron density of halophenol with acetylation and changing Sonogashira coupling reagent from $PdCl_2(PPh_3)_2$ to $Pd(OAc)_2/P(^tBu)_3-HBF_4$ smoothly produce the benzofuran structures in the syntheses of moracins M, N and S. The electron deficient halobenzaldehyde, however, easily forms the benzofuran using original Sonogashira conditions, and utilized for the first synthesis of moracin Y.

When phenylation of styrene was carried out in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and PPh3 in benzene, trans-stilbene was obtained in good yield (566%) with high selectivity (98%) under mild condition (55 ℃, 50 psi O2, 20 h). Since trans-stilbene could be produced not only from benzene but also from phenyl group of PPh3 by migration of its phenyl group to Pd, the competitiveness of benzene and the migratory aptitude of aryl group of triarylphosphine toward styrene has been investigated with various phosphines (PR3: P(p-C6H4CH3)3, P(p-C6H4OCH3)3, P(p-C6H4F)3, P(p-C6H4Cl)3, P(C6H5)3, P(C6H11)3, P(OC4H9n)3, P(CH2C6H5)3 and P(C6F5)3). The yield and selectivity toward trans-stilbene are increased as the basicity of the phosphines increases. The composition of arylated olefin from arylphosphine, in turn, increases as the electronegativity of the substituent on the aryl group of arylphosphines increases.

A $Pd(OAc)_2/(o-MeOPh)_3P$ system has been developed for the catalytic Suzuki coupling of aryl bromides with arylboronic acids. Our catalyst system covers a broad spectrum of commonly available arylboronic acids and aryl bromides to provide biaryls in very good yields. The catalyst system works very well in the synthesis of sterically hindered biaryls.

Vinylation of highly hindered ${\beta}$-acetoxyvinyl mercurials with olefins in acetonitrile at room temperature in the presence of cupric chloride, as a reoxidant for the palladium, and a catalytic amount of $LiPdCl_3$ gave the corresponding conjugated dienes in moderate to good yields. The (E) or (Z) geometry in vinyl mercurials was retained in the vinylated products. The reaction was tolerant of a wide variety of functional groups ($CO_2$R, CN, OR, OAc) on either the vinyl mercurial or olefin compounds.

The new idarubicin analogues (12 and 13) with a glucose or galactoseas as a glycone were synthesized from daunomycin (2). (+)-4-Demethoxydaunomycinone (6) obtained from reaction of 2 with $AlCl_3$ was converted to 4-trifluoromethanesulfonyl daunomycinone (7) through reaction with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride. The treatment of 7 with 1,1-bis-(diphenylphospino)ferrocene/$Pd(OAc)_2$ in triethylamine/formic acid/dioxane provided the idarubicinone (5b). Glycosylation of 7-hydroxy group of 5b with two kinds of tetraacetyl pyranosyl halide (8 and 9) by a modified Koenigs-Knorr procedure and then deacetylation using aqueous 0.1 N LiOH solution and amberlite cationic resin gave the objective materials. The in vitro MTT assay of the analogues (12b and 13a) in comparison with idarubicin (5a) on peripheral blood human promyelocytic-leukemia cell line and human breast cancer cell line were also described.

A short synthesis of novel prostanoids, 12-epi-carbacyclins 3 and 24, has been accomplished using palladium chemistry as a key step. The silyl enol ether 10a prepared through organopalladium chemistry has been allowed to react with 1-octen-3-one in the presence of $Pd(OAc)_2$ to give compound 12 in a single step. The unusual chemo- and stereoselective reduction of the ${\alpha},{\beta}$-unsaturated ketone in 12 has been effected with (S)-BINALH. Subsequent desilylation and Wittig reaction have provided the Subsequent desilylation and Wittig reaction have provided the $PGI_2$ analogues 3 and 24.
