Abstract

Abstract A highly efficient Heck cross-coupling reaction between various aryl halides and olefins using mononuclear palladacycle complexes of the type [(Ph 2 P CH 2 CH 2 PPh 2) Pd (Ph 2 PCH 2 PPh 2 C (H) C (O) PhX)](OSO 2 CF 3) 2 (X= Br (1), No 2 (2)) as catalyst precursors, under aerobic conditions has been developed. High yields of corresponding C– C products, low catalyst loadings and short reaction times are important features of these ...
