Through the introduction of an aryl chloride substituent, the selectivity of palladium-catalyzeddirectarylation may be diverted to provide alternative regioisomeric products in high yields. In cases where low reactivity is typically observed, the presence of the carbon−chlorine bond can serve to enhance reactivity and provide superior outcomes. From a strategic perspective, the C−Cl bond is easily

New electron‐deficient biarylphosphine ligands were studied and proved to be efficient for the directarylation of heteroarenes with aryl iodides. The ability of a more electron‐deficient palladium centre to accelerate the arylation of heterocycles that remained unreactive with aryl iodides in the past has been validated and these heteroarenes can now be smoothly reacted in the presence of a new electrophilic
The present invention is a one-step method for efficiently converting carbon-hydrogen bonds into carbon-carbon bonds using a combination of aryl halides, a substrate, and a copper salt as catalyst. This method allows faster introduction of complex molecular entities, a process that would otherwise require many more steps. This invention is particularly relevant for the organic synthesis of complex molecules such as, but not limited to, pharmacophores and explosives.
