Application

Hindered Phosphine salt employed with a Pd(0)-15-membered, triolefinic, macrocyle in Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of aryl bromides and chlorides. Also used in Heck coupling of non-activated vinyl tosylates with electron deficient olefins.
Ligand used in the Pd-catalyzed enantioselective α−arylation of N-boc-pyrrolidine.

This communication discloses the first instance of the enantioselective Pd-catalyzed alpha-arylation of N-Boc-pyrrolidine. The methodology relies on Beak's sparteine-mediated, enantioselective deprotonation of N-Boc-pyrrolidine to form the 2-pyrrolidinolithium specices in high enantiomeric ratio (er). Transmetalation of this intermediate with zinc chloride
