General description

Bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride ((PdCl2(PPh3)2) is an organopalladium complex containing tertiary phosphine ligands that is commonly used in C-C bond forming reactions such as Heck arylation, Suzuki coupling, Stille coupling, and Sonogashira coupling.

Application

Application Guide for Palladium Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions
Bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride can be used as a catalyst in the:
  • Coupling of 2-iodoanisole and terminal alkynes to synthesize 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans.
  • Copper-free Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction to synthesize diphenylacetylene.
  • Regioselective hydrocarboxylation of styrene.
  • Negishi coupling of fluoroarylzinc pivalates to prepare fluorinated oligophenyls.
  • Coupling of iodo-α-β-unsaturated esters to afford tetrasubstituted olefins.
For small scale and high throughput uses, product is also available as ChemBeads (927759)

The efficient regioselective and stereospecific synthesis of tetrasubstituted olefins using a mild and convenient method is disclosed. 2-Alkynyl esters are selectively converted to E-beta-chloro-alpha-iodo-alpha,beta-unsaturated esters by exposure to Bu4NI in refluxing dichloroethane. These products are produced cleanly, regio- and stereoselectively
