- Abstract:
- The latest synthetic strategies to prepare 2,2-bipyridine and
its mono-substituted, symmetrical and unsymmetrical 3,3-,
4,4-, 5,5-, and 6,6-disubstituted derivatives are critically
discussed and evaluated. Different coupling procedures to
achieve new symmetrical and unsymmetrical functionalized
2,2-bipyridines, such as Stille-type, Negishi-type, and Suzuki-type cross-coupling reactions are discussed in detail.
Moreover, condensation procedures that allow further variations
are presented. The application of functional group
transformations for access to additional groups is examined.
