Abstract

The coupling reaction of aryl chlorides with arylboronic acids was successfully performed in isopropanol (IPA) by using [NiCl(Ph2PCH2CH2OH)2(H2O)]Cl (5), a cationic Ni(II)-complex, as a precatalyst in the absence of a reducing agent. The coupling reaction proceeded smoothly under mild conditions to provide biaryls in satisfactory to excellent yields, and formation of the undesired dechlorination products of aryl chlorides was completely prevented.
