Carbon-sulfur coupling reactions catalyzed by Pd-NHC complex

Article abstract of DOI:10.1055/s-0030-1260985

The cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides with aliphatic or aromatic thiols catalyzed by (SIPr)Pd(Py)Clis reported. This Pd-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex shows good to excellent activities toward various deactivated electron-rich aryl halides and even with unactivated aryl chlorides in C-S coupling reactions. The reactions proceeded in good yields, broad scope, and high tolerance of functional groups. The Pd-NHC complex is stable and easily to synthesize, so it is an excellent candidate to replace Pd-organophosphanes commonly used in C-S coupling catalysis.

Received 12 April 2011
I, as the corresponding author, retract the publication by Yanhui Shi et al. “Carbon–Sulfur Coupling Reactions Cata-
lyzed by Pd–NHC Complex” that appeared in Synlett 2011, 2090–2096.
The intellectual content and factual execution of this work is based on studies carried out in the group of Professor
Michael G. Organ at York University, Toronto, Canada during a period prior to 2009, when I was his postdoctoral as-
sociate. It was submitted without his prior knowledge and consent. I sincerely regret this serious error in judgment.
