Abstract

trans-Chloro(1-naphthyl)bis(triphenylphosphine)nickel(II) complex/PCy 3 system has been successfully applied as catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl and heteroaryl neopentylglycolboronates with aryl and heteroaryl mesylates and sulfamates in THF at room temperature. This cross-coupling reaction tolerates various functional groups, including keto, imino, ester, ether, and cyano. Together with the nickel-catalyzed, one-pot, two-step neopentylglycolborylation, this bench stable and inexpensive Ni(II)-based catalyst can be utilized as an alternative to Ni(COD) 2/PCy 3 to provide an inexpensive, robust, and convenient synthesis of biaryl and heterobiaryl compounds.
