Differences in the Performance of Allyl Based Palladium Precatalysts for Suzuki-Miyaura Reactions.


ABSTRACT: Palladium(II) precatalysts are used extensively to facilitate cross-coupling reactions because they are bench stable and give high activity. As a result, precatalysts such as Buchwald's palladacycles, Organ's PEPPSI species, Nolan's allyl-based complexes, and Yale's 1-tert-butylindenyl containing complexes, are all commercially available. Comparing the performance of the different classes of precatalysts is challenging because they are typically used under different conditions, in part because they are reduced to the active species via different pathways. However, within a particular class of precatalyst, it is easier to compare performance because they activate via similar pathways and are used under the same conditions. Here, we evaluate the activity of different allyl-based precatalysts, such as (η3-allyl)PdCl(L), (η3-crotyl)PdCl(L), (η3-cinnamyl)PdCl(L), and (η3-1-tert-butylindenyl)PdCl(L) in Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. Specifically, we evaluate precatalyst performance as the ancillary ligand (NHC or phosphine), reaction conditions, and substrates are varied. In some cases, we connect relative activity to both the mechanism of activation and the prevalence of the formation of inactive palladium(I) dimers. Additionally, we compare the performance of in situ generated precatalysts with commonly used palladium sources such as tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (Pd2dba3), bis(acetonitrile)dichloropalladium(II) (Pd(CH3CN)2Cl2), and palladium acetate. Our results provide information about which precatalyst to use under different conditions.
