The first palladium-catalyzed reductive cross-couplings of aryl chromium(0) carbene complexes with aryl iodides have been realized. This coupling reaction shows excellent functional group tolerance and high efficiency. Mechanistically, aryl chromium(0) carbene complexes undergo transmetalation with arylpalladium species to generate palladium(II) carbene intermediates, which is followed by migratory insertion. The catalytic cycle is then completed by hydrogen transfer and reductive elimination. Consistent with the mechanistic hypothesis, density functional theory (DFT) calculations support the involvement of a palladium carbene intermediate, and carbene migratory insertion is a facile step with an energy barrier of 5.1 kcal/mol. The carbene transfer step and the hydrogen transfer step are confirmed as the rate-limiting steps in the catalytic cycle.

A new substrate class for nickel-catalyzed C(sp3) cross-coupling reactions is reported. α-Oxy radicals generated from benzylic acetals, TMSCl, and a mild reductant can participate in chemoselective cross-coupling with aryl iodides using a 2,6-bis(N-pyrazolyl)pyridine (bpp)/Ni catalyst. The mild, base-free conditions are tolerant of a variety of functional groups on both partners, thus representing an attractive C-C bond-forming approach to dialkyl ether synthesis. Characterization of a [(bpp)NiCl] complex relevant to the proposed catalytic cycle is also described.
