Abstract

Abstract A convenient method for CS cross-coupling of aryl bromides with various thiols has been developed that involves the use of a 1, 1′-bis (diphenylphosphino) ferrocene (DPPF)- ligated palladium complex with N, N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) as the base. This coupling is tolerant of a wide range of functional groups, including hydroxy, amino, cyano, nitro, formyl, and carboxyl groups.
