1,1’-Bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) and structurally related ferrocene bis-phosphines are indispensable ligands for coordination chemistry and catalysis. This contribution focuses on the coordination behaviour and catalytic properties of two dppf congeners bearing 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,4,6-trioxa-8-phosphatricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-8-yl groups (CgP) as the P-donor moieties, viz. Ph2PfcCgP (1) and its semi-homologous counterpart Ph2PfcCH2CgP (2; fc = ferrocene-1,1’-diyl). In reactions with a PdCl2 source, compound 1 produced exclusively the cis-chelate complex [PdCl2(1-κ2P,P’)], while the homologated ligand 2 afforded a complex mixture of compounds which equilibrated upon heating in methanol in favour of the symmetrical dimeric complex trans-[(μ-2)PdCl2]2 as a mixture of racemic and meso isomers. Notably, in aqueous Pd-catalysed cyanation of aryl bromides and Suzuki-Miyaura-type cross-coupling of benzoyl chlorides with boronic acids producing benzophenones, catalysts generated in situ from bis-phosphine 1 and Pd(II) sources were often more active than their counterparts resulting from dppf and 2.

The cross-coupling of aryl esters has emerged as a powerful platform for the functionalization of otherwise inert acyl C-O bonds in chemical synthesis and catalysis. Herein, we report a combined experimental and computational study on the acyl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl esters mediated by well-defined, air- and moisture-stable Pd(ii)-NHC precatalysts [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2. We present a comprehensive evaluation of [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 precatalysts and compare them with the present state-of-the-art [(Pd(NHC)allyl] precatalysts bearing allyl-type throw-away ligands. Most importantly, the study reveals [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 as the most reactive precatalysts discovered to date in this reactivity manifold. The unique synthetic utility of this unconventional O-C(O) cross-coupling is highlighted in the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals and sequential chemoselective cross-coupling, providing access to valuable ketone products by a catalytic mechanism involving Pd insertion into the aryl ester bond. Furthermore, we present a comprehensive study of the catalytic cycle by DFT methods. Considering the clear advantages of [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 precatalysts on several levels, including facile one-pot synthesis, superior atom-economic profile to all other Pd(ii)-NHC catalysts, and versatile reactivity, these should be considered as the 'first-choice' catalysts for all routine applications in ester O-C(O) bond activation.

The carbonyl compounds, synthesized by the oxidative cleavage of their corresponding olefins, are of great significance in organic synthesis, especially aryl ketones. We have developed a gentle and effective protocol, using acid red 94 as the organic metal-free photocatalyst, O2 as the oxidant, and water as the solvent. Under visible light irradiation, aryl ketone derivatives were obtained in moderate to excellent yields, showing good economic and environmental advantages.
