The regioselective 5-arylation of imidazole derivatives with aryl bromides using a low loading of a phosphine-free palladium catalyst gives a simple and economic access to the corresponding 5-arylimidazoles. The choice of the base and of the solvent was found to be crucial to form these products in high yields. Using KOAc as the base, DMAc as the solvent and only 0.5–0.01 mol % Pd(OAc)2 as the catalyst

On the basis of the strategy of developing highly efficient protocol for Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, a series of bulky bis(imino)acenaphthene (BIAN)-supported Pd-PEPPSI complexes were synthesized, characterized, and applied in direct arylation of azoles. The effect of backbone and N-moieties on NHCs was evaluated, and the reaction conditions were optimized. It was found that the bulky Pd-PEPPSI complexes could be successfully employed in cross-coupling of (hetero)aryl bromides with azoles at a low palladium loading of 0.5-0.05 mol % under aerobic conditions, demonstrating the ease of manipulation without glovebox and handling of solvents.

A series of sterically encumbered tetraarylimidazolium carbene Pd-PEPPSI complexes were conveniently prepared and fully characterized. These sterically encumbered Pd-PEPPSI complexes act as active precatalysts for the direct arylation of imidazoles with aryl bromides under aerobic conditions. The catalytic performance of Pd-PEPPSI complexes in cross-coupling processes is investigated. Under the optimal protocols, the cross-coupling reactions regioselectively produced C5-arylation products in moderate to excellent yields, which could tolerate a wide range of functional aryl bromides.
