Abstract
•A rare example of a hetero-bimetallic Pd–Ru anionic dicarbene complex is presented.•The compound is used in homogeneous tandem catalysis.•The catalytic selectivity depends on the timely order of solvent addition.
A hetero-bimetallic Pd–Ru N-Heterocyclic Dicarbene (NHDC) complex was synthesized from a Ag–Ru complex by transmetalation. The Pd–Ru system displays high catalytic activity in tandem Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling/transfer hydrogenation reaction of bromoaryl ketones with boronic acids in toluene and 2-propanol in the presence of KOH.
