Abstract

The β-diketiminatophosphane Pd complex acted as a powerful catalyst for the Heck coupling of aryl chlorides with alkenes. Various aryl and heteroaryl chlorides were coupled efficiently under relatively mild conditions. Furthermore, this catalytic system also proved to be highly active in the Buchwald–Hartwig coupling of deactivated and sterically hindered aryl chlorides at room temperature.
