In this study, nickel-catalyzed coupling reactions between arylhalides and tert-alkyl Grignard reagents were developed. Our original bicyclic NHC ligands reduced the formation of isomerized products, and we found that NMP as a co-solvent suppressed the reduction process. Under the optimal conditions we developed, the catalyst loading was lowered to 0.5?mol?%, and catalyst loading using ortho-substituted aryl bromides was also applicable at the level of 2.0?mol?%.
