Abstract

Abstract Two easily accessible hydrazinoaminocarbene complexes of Pd (II) are shown to be efficient catalysts for copper-free Sonogashira cross-couplings of a variety of aryl iodides with aryl-and alkylalkynes under mild conditions, in ethanol as the solvent and using potassium carbonate as the base. The reactions were carried out with 0.05 mol% of the catalysts which demonstrated exceptional stability in the solid state and in ethanol. ...
