General description

P(t-Bu)3 Pd G2 (Chloro[(tri-tert-butylphosphine)-2-(2-aminobiphenyl)] palladium(II)) is a second generation (G2) precatalyst containing a biphenyl-based ligand. Product participates in various palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, C-C, C-N and C-O bond formation reactions, and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions. It generates active Pd catalyst at room temperature in the presence of weak phosphate or carbonate bases. It has been proposed as an active catalyst for use in Stille reactions of aryl halides (bromides and chlorides).

Application

P(t-Bu)3 Pd G2 (Chloro[(tri-tert-butylphosphine)-2-(2-aminobiphenyl)] palladium(II), Pd/P(t-Bu)3) may be used as catalyst in the following studies:
  • Synthesis of sterically hindered biaryls (tetra-ortho-substituted), via cross-coupling reactions of aryl chlorides.
  • Stille cross-couplings reactions of aryl chloride.
  • Synthesis of chloropeptin I, via Stille cross-coupling reaction.
  • Heck reaction.
  • Negishi cross-coupling reactions.

Pd/P(t-Bu)(3) serves as an unusually reactive catalyst for Stille reactions of aryl chlorides and bromides, providing solutions to a number of long-standing challenges. An unprecedented array of aryl chlorides can be cross-coupled with a range of organotin reagents, including SnBu(4).

Metal-catalyzed coupling reactions of aryl electrophiles with organometallics and with olefins serve as unusually effective tools for forming new carbon-carbon bonds. By 1998, researchers had developed catalysts that achieved reactions of aryl iodides, bromides, and triflates. Nevertheless, many noteworthy challenges

The Buchwald group has developed a series of highly active and versatile palladium precatalysts and biarylphosphine ligands used in cross-coupling reactions for the formation of C-C, C–N, C–O, C–F, C–CF3, and C–S bonds. The ligands are electron-rich, and highly tunable to provide catalyst systems with a diverse scope, high stability and reactivity. Furthermore, the new series of precatalysts are air-, moisture and thermally-stable and display good solubility in common organic solvents. The use of precatalysts ensures the efficient generation of the active catalytic species and allows one to accurately adjust the ligand:palladium ratio. The ligands, precatalysts and methodology developed in the Buchwald group are user friendly and have rendered previously difficult cross couplings reactions, much easier to achieve.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
