An efficient and high-yielding cross-coupling reaction of various primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl chlorides with aryl Grignard reagents was achieved by using catalytic amounts of N-heterocyclic carbene ligands and iron salts. This reaction is a simple and efficient arylation method having applicability to a wide range of industrially abundant chloroalkanes, including polychloroalkanes, which are challenging substrates under conventional cross-coupling conditions.

Tantalum (or niobium)-alkyne complexes are produced by treatment of acetylenes with the low-valent tantalum (niobium) derived by zinc reduction of TaCl5 (NbCl5). Substituted 1-naphthols are prepared regioselectively by reaction of o-phthalaldehyde with the tantalum (or niobium)-alkyne complexes in good to excellent yield.
