Application

Ligand used in the α-arylation of nitriles with aryl bromides and chlorides, and in the Stille cross-coupling of aryl chlorides.
Together with Pd2(dba)3 (Catalog Number 328774) forms a highly efficient catalyst for one-pot syntheses of trans-4-N,N-diarylaminostilbenes and N,N-diarylaminostyrenes. Catalyst for methanolic cleavage of heteroaromatic carbamates.

A new catalyst system for the synthesis of alpha-aryl-substituted nitriles is reported. The bicyclic triaminophosphine P(i-BuNCH(2)CH(2))(3)N (1b) serves as an efficient and versatile ligand for the palladium-catalyzed direct alpha-arylation of nitriles with aryl bromides. Using ligand 1b, ethyl cyanoacetate and

[reaction: see text] The Pd(2)(dba)(3)/P(i-BuNCH(2)CH(2))(3)N (1d) catalyst system is highly effective for the Stille cross-coupling of aryl chlorides with organotin compounds. This method represents only the second general method for the coupling of aryl chlorides. Other proazaphosphatranes possessing benzyl substituents
