Diverse pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidines that are expected to exhibit bioactivity were synthesized through O-arylation and Suzuki coupling reactions. Microwave-assisted O-arylation was successfully performed using a Cu metal catalyst, so that 4 position of pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine could be substituted with phenol group. In addition, 4-aryl substituted pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidines were synthesized with good to excellent yields by microwave-assisted Suzuki coupling reaction using a Pd metal catalyst. By using microwaves as reaction conditions for diversification of derivatives, it was possible to dramatically overcome the disadvantages of traditional heat reactions of long reaction times and heat transfer efficiency problems. The result of this study can be used to be diversify pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives, which are expected to play an important role in the drug discovery research.

An inexpensive and efficient catalyst system has been developed for the N-arylation of phenylurea including a variety of aryl halides. This simple protocol uses $Cu_2O$ as the catalyst, microwave assisted, solvent- and ligand-free, $K_3PO_4{\cdot}H_2O$ as the base.

N-Arylation reaction of nitrogen-containing heterocycles such as pyridine, nicotinamide and 4,4'-bipyridine was studied. We prepared N-2,4-dinitrophenyl derivatives initially by reacting the above heterocycles with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene in ethanol, and then treated the N-2,4-dinitrophenylated heterocycles with various aniline derivatives, $XC_6H_4NH_2$(X = -H, p-$CH_3$, p-$C_2H_5$, p-Cl, p-CN, p-OH, p-$OCH_3$, o-Cl, m-$CH_3$) to yield the corresponding N-arylated compounds in fairly good yields. $H^1$-nmr patterns and peak assignments of the N-arylated products were described.

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.
