Pd‐PEPPSI‐IPent, a recently‐developed N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex, has been evaluated in amination reactions with secondary amines and it has shown superb reactivity under the most mildly basic reaction conditions. Rate and computationalstudies were conducted to provide insight into the mechanism of the transformation. The IPent catalyst coordinates to the amine much more strongly than the

A new N-heterocyclic ligand IPr*(OMe) [N,N'-bis(2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-methoxyphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] has been synthesized and compared with its earlier methyl-substituted congener IPr* [N,N'-bis(2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-methylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene]. IPr*(OMe) was successfully bound to palladium, and the catalytic activity of the resulting complex [Pd(IPr*(OMe))(acac)Cl] was investigated in Buchwald-Hartwig arylamination. Catalytic activity was compared to that of [Pd(IPr*)(acac)Cl].

The use of the ITent‐based series of Pd‐N‐heterocyclic carbenes precatalysts (Tent= Tentacular) enables the Buchwald–Hartwig aminearylation reaction in apolar alkanesolvents. The use of such solvents is rare because of their poor solvation properties. Nonetheless, they could be of interest for industrial applications, as they can be disposed of in an energetically favorable manner and may potentially
