A straightforward synthetic procedure to well-defined, air- and moisture- stable trans-[Pd(NHC)Cl2(DMS/THT)] (NHC=IPr, SIPr, IMes, IPrCl, IPr*, IPr#) pre-catalysts was reported. These complexes were obtained by reacting NHC.HCl imidazolium salts with trans-[PdCl2(DMS/THT)2] precursors with the assistance of the weak base K2CO3 in green acetone at40°C. The scalability of this protocol was demonstrated. The catalytic activity of the synthesized complexes was studied in the Buchwald-Hartwig and Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. Remarkably, most of the synthesized complexes exhibited higher catalytic activity with respect to their PEPPSI congeners in the Buchwald-Hartwig amination in 2-MeTHF. In particular, complex trans-[Pd(IPr#)Cl2(DMS)] enabled the coupling of various (hetero)aryl chlorides and primary/secondary amines with a 0.2 mol% catalyst loading. In addition, trans-[Pd(IPr)Cl2(DMS)] showed excellent performance in the room-temperature Suzuki-Miyaura reaction involving various (hetero)aryl chlorides and aryl boronic acids. In summary, the synthesized complexes, especially trans-[Pd(NHC)Cl2(DMS)], was considered as greener alternatives to classical PEPPSI type catalysts based on the lower toxicity of the throw-away DMS ligand compared to 3-chloropyridine. In the experimental materials used by the author, we found 1,3-Bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride(cas: 258278-25-0Product Details of 258278-25-0)
1,3-Bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride(cas: 258278-25-0) may be used as a precursor to the free carbene 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene, and also used as an in situ formed catalyst in a variety of reactions, e.g. amination, Heck coupling reaction, the ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), hydrogenation.Product Details of 258278-25-0In addition, it can efficiently catalyze the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl chlorides with aryl boronic acids.
