Application

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands
The palladium/1,3-bis-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolinium chloride (IPr·HCl) system can efficiently catalyze the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl chlorides with aryl boronic acids.
Used as a precursor to the free carbene 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene, and also used as an in situ formed catalyst in a variety of reactions, e.g. amination, Heck coupling reaction, the ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), hydrogenation.
Used in an efficient, one-pot synthesis of N-heterocyclic carbene-allylpalladium complexes.

Imidazolinium-derived carbenes catalyze the ring-expansion lactonization of oxacycloalkane-2-carboxaldehydes. A variety of functionalized five-, six-, and seven-membered lactones can be formed efficiently under mild reaction conditions. The success of this new method for the construction of lactones is highly influenced by
Suzuki?Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl and alkyl halides using palladium/imidazolium salt protocols.

[reaction: see text] Catalyst formed from N,N-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)dihydroimidazolium chloride and palladium(II) acetate (2 mol %) was used, without added base, to efficiently produce Heck coupled products with olefins and aryl diazonium tetrafluoroborate substrates. The reactions were performed at room temperature, giving
