Simple (Imidazol-2-ylidene)-Pd-Acetate Complexes as Effective Precatalysts for Sterically Hindered Suzuki−Miyaura Couplings

Abstract
[reaction: see text] A simplified synthesis of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)Pd-carboxylate complexes and their activity in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions are described. Coupling of sterically hindered aryl and activated alkyl chlorides bearing beta-hydrogens has been successfully achieved.
