In the presence of novel iron(II) chloride-diphosphine complexes and magnesium bromide, lithium arylborates react with primary and secondary alkyl halides to give the corresponding coupling products in good to excellent yields. High functional group compatibility is also demonstrated in the reactions of substrates possessing reactive substituents, such as alkoxycarbonyl, cyano, and carbonyl groups

dichroism spectroscopic studies combined with inorganic syntheses and reactionstudies are employed to evaluate the in situ formed iron species and identify the active catalytic species in iron–SciOPP catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura and Kumada cross-couplings of phenyl nucleophiles and secondary alkylhalides. While reductive elimination to form Fe(η6-biphenyl)(SciOPP) occurs upon reaction of FeCl2(SciOPP) with

The present invention provides a process for efficiently producing an alkylated aromatic compound in good yield, by a cross-coupling reaction between an alkyl halide and an aromatic magnesium reagent. A process for producing an aromatic compound represented by Formula (1):
R—Ar′ (1)
wherein R is a hydrocarbon group, and Ar′ is an aryl group;
the process comprising:
reacting a compound represented by Formula (2):
R—X (2)
wherein X is a halogen atom, and R is as defined above, with a magnesium reagent represented by Formula (3):
Ar′—MgY (3)
wherein Y is a halogen atom, and Ar′ is as defined above, in the presence of a catalyst for cross-coupling reactions comprising an iron compound and a bisphosphine compound represented by Formula (4):
wherein Q is a divalent group derived from an aromatic ring by removing two hydrogen (H) atoms on adjacent carbon atoms; and each Ar is independently an aryl group.
An iron(II) chloride complex possessing a sterically demanding ortho-phenylene-tethered bisphosphine ligand shows a high catalytic activity in the Kumada–Tamao–Corriu coupling of nonactivated alkyl halides with aryl Grignard reagents. Primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl halides can participate as an electrophilic coupling partner. A radical clock experiment using (iodomethyl)cyclopropane exclusively gives the corresponding ring-opening coupling product, suggesting intermediacy of alkyl radical species.

effective catalysts for C-C cross-coupling, the nature of the in situ formed iron species, elucidation of the active catalysts and the mechanisms of catalysis have remained elusive. A combination of (57)Fe Mössbauer and magneticcirculardichroism (MCD) spectroscopies of well-defined and in situ formed mesityl-iron(II)-SciOPP species combined with densityfunctionaltheory (DFT) investigations provides
