Akira Suzuki Norio Myaura Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling • The Suzuki reaction is the organic reaction of an aryl-boronic acid with an aryl-halide catalyzed by a palladium complex
Motive • As part of an ongoing drug discovery program in our laboratories 3 was identified as a key synthetic intermediate. • Best conditions needed to be developed that allowed crystallization of 3 from the reaction mixture in high purity with palladium levels <150 ppm.

Palladium Removal Methods • Distillation • Adsorption • - Activated Carbon • - Smopex TM fibers • - Silica-Bound Scavengers • Crystallization • Extraction Garrett, C. E.; Prasad, K. AdV. Synth. Catal. 2004
Design of experiments (DOE) • Design of experiments (DOE) is the most efficient approach for organizing experimental work. • DOE selects a diverse and representative set of experiments in which all factors are independent of each other despite being varied simultaneously. • The result is a causal predictive model showing the importance of all factors and their interactions.

Conclusions • The ligand-solvent-base screen helped to define Suzuki- Miyaura reaction conditions. • The removal of palladium from the reaction mixture using a toluene extraction-NaHSO3 wash system as the most effective method. • Both the optimized reaction conditions and palladium removal technique were demonstrated on 20-L scale in 82% yield (>99.8% purity) and 100 ppm palladium.
