Ligand-free Pd(OAc)2 was found to catalyze very efficiently the directarylation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines at C3 under very low catalyst concentration. The reaction can be performed employing as little as 0.1–0.01 mol % catalyst with electron-deficient and some electron-excessive aryl bromides.
products in metal‐catalyzed direct arylation reactions. We found that the use of only 1 mol% of the heterogeneous catalyst Pd/C promotes very efficiently the direct arylations of most heteroaromatics. In the presence of this catalyst and potassium acetate as the base, the direct arylation of thiophenes, furans, pyrroles, thiazoles, imidazoles or isoxazoles, using arylbromides as coupling partners, proceeds
