Versatile applications and unique performance of 1,1’-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocene (dppf) in coordination chemistry and catalysis prompted the search for its analogs. This contribution describes the synthesis of the first donor-unsymmetric dppf congeners bearing bulky and rigid 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,4,6-trioxa-8-phosphaadamantyl (CgP) donor groups, viz. Ph2PfcPCg (1) and Ph2PfcCH2PCg (2; fc=ferrocene-1,1’-diyl). Bis-phosphanes 1 and 2 were converted into air-stable Pd(0) complexes, [Pd(ma)(L^L)] (L^L=1 and 2; ma=maleic anhydride). Together with [Pd(ma)(dppf)], these complexes were applied as catalysts in Pd-catalyzed C?H arylation of benzoxazoles with aryl chlorides in n-butanol as an environmentally benign solvent. Among all catalysts tested in this study, complex [Pd(ma)(2)] performed the best, providing a high-yield and selective synthesis of 2-arylbenzoxazoles from a range of the generally less reactive chloroarenes at low catalyst loading (typically 1 mol.%). Under similar conditions, the structurally related heterocycles (e. g., 1-methylbenzimidazole and benzothiazole) did not react.

2-Aryl/heteroaryl-substituted benzoxazoles are important heterocyclic motifs extensively found in several bioactive molecules, pharmaceuticals and natural products. In view of the importance of these compounds, there is need to develop easiest and simplest synthetic routes. The motive of this current work is to conduct the direct C2-arylation reaction on benzoxazole with various cross-coupling partners like aryl/heteroaryl halide/carboxylic acid/diazonium tetrafluoroborate/sulfonyl chloride/boronic acids in the presence of different symmetrical and unsymmetrical Pd-PEPPSI (pyridine-enhanced pre-catalyst preparation by stabilization initiation) catalysts via C (sp2)–C (sp2) bond formation. Compared with other coupling partners, boronic acids coupled with benzoxazole very efficiently in the presence of sterically and electronically tunable bulky1,3-bis(N,N′-2,4,6-triisopropylbenzyl)benzimidazolium-Pd-PEPPSI complex in open air to offer the corresponding C2-aryl/heteroaryl benzoxazole compounds. Further, it is worthy to mention that there is no need of any external oxidant/ligand/additive for the complete conversion of starting molecules to products. The reactions progressed successfully with a wide range of substrate scope and attained the products in good to excellent yields in a short reaction time in ethanol/water (1:1) medium. Greatly, catalysts can be recovered and reused for few cycles with significant reactivity.

The iron-catalyzed hydrogen transfer strategy has been applied to the redox condensation of o-hydroxynitrobenzene with alcohol, leading to the formation of benzoxazole derivatives. A wide range of 2-substituted benzoxazoles were synthesized in good to excellent yields without the addition of an external redox agent. A series of control experiments provided a plausible mechanism. Furthermore, the reaction system was successfully extended to the synthesis of benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles.
