The structures of all novel complexes were characterized by ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis techniques. These palladium(ll)-NHC complexes were tested as efficient catalysts in the direct C-H bond activation of benzoxazole and benzothiazole with aryl bromides in the presence of 1 mol% catalyst loading at 150 ℃ for 4 h. Under the given conditions, various aryl bromides were successfully applied as the arylating reagents to achieve the 2-arylbenzoxazoles and 2-arylbenzothiazoles in acceptable to high yields.展开更多

It was found that 1,3 bis(2,4,6 trimethylphenyl) imidazolium chloride (IMesHCl) Pd 2(dba) 3 catalytic system has the highest activity to obtain phenyl malononitrile among the imidazolium salts. The substituted iodoarenes reacted with malononitrile anions by using the catalytic system to give cross coupling products in yields from 50% to 96%.展开更多

Reaction of the imidazolium salts hearing a long polyether chain with Ag2O afforded Ag-NHC complexes, which then reacted as carbene transfer agent with PdCl2(MeCN)2 to give the desired acyelic Pd(Ⅱ)-NHC metallacrown ether complexes 5a and 5b. The 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra show fia and fib exist as mixtures ofcis and trans isomers in solution. The trans isomer of 5a was characterized by X-ray diffraction, which clearly demonstrated two pseudo-crown ether cavities in trans-5a. Pd(Ⅱ)-NHC complexes 5a and 5b have been shown to be highly effective in the Suzuki-Miyaura reactions of a variety of aryl bromides in neat water without the need of inert gas protection.展开更多

The two bis-imidazolinium salts were used as efficient precursor of NHC ancillary ligands in the palladium-catalyzed Heck reaction. Good to excellent yields and high stereoselectivities were obtained with ethyl acrylate, acrylonitrile, and acrylamide as starting materials. The structure of bis-imidazolinium salt 4b was further characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.展开更多
