NUCLEOPHILIC HETEROCYCLIC CARBENE DERIVATIVES OF PD(ACAC)2 FOR CROSS-COUPLING REACTIONS

摘要

Embodiments in accordance with the present invention provide for a palladium complex characterized by the general Formula (I): where A is a bidentate monoanionic ligand, NHC is a nucleophilic heterocyclic carbene, and Z is an anionic ligand. Such palladium complexes are useful in initiating cross-coupling reactions. ® KIPO & WIPO 2008
