Abstract

An air-and moisture-stable palladium catalyst,[(CyPF-t Bu) PdCl2](1), for coupling of heteroaryl chlorides, bromides, and iodides with a variety of primary amines is described. Most of these reactions occurred in high yield with 0.001− 0.05 mol% catalyst loading. The reactions tolerated a wide range of functional groups.
