Two-Step, One-Pot Ni-Catalyzed Neopentylglycolborylation and Complementary Pd/Ni-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling with Aryl Halides, Mesylates, and Tosylates

摘要

Two-step, one-pot neopentylglycolborylation of aryl iodides and bromides catalyzed by NiCl2(dppe) and NiCl2(dppp) is reported. Electron-rich and electron-deficient aryl neopentylglycolboronates were efficiently cross-coupled with aryl iodides, bromides, chlorides, mesylates, and tosylates by exploiting complementary Pd/Ni and Ni/Ni catalysis. The borylation route was further extended to a three-step, one-pot synthesis of biaryls via in situ Ni-catalyzed borylation and Pd-mediated cross-coupling.
