We report a direct cross-coupling reaction between (het)aryl pivalates/tosylates and di(het)arylzinc species in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran/N-methyl pyrrolidone (1:1), which occurs via C–O bond cleavage under microwave irradiation. The reaction takes place smoothly in short reaction times without the addition of any catalyst or ligand. The reaction is suitable for a broad scope of substrates and exhibits good functional group compatibility, utilizes a simple work-up procedure, and gives the desired products in high purity.

The nickel(II) pincer complex, [NiCl(PhPNP)] (PhPNP = anion of 2,5-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)pyrrole), has been employed as a precatalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides and boronic acids. Both electron-rich and electron-deficient aromatic bromides were found to undergo coupling with boronic acids in modest yield at elevated temperature in the presence of K3PO4·H2O. Preliminary mechanistic studies of the reaction identified a novel species formulated as the boronate complex, [Ni(OB{OH}{2-tolyl})(PhPNP)], which most likely represents a catalyst deactivation pathway. The productive catalytic cycle was found to be most consistent with a Ni(I)/Ni(III) process where the boronic acid serves as both reductant and nucleophile in the presence of base.
Transition-Metal-Free Cross-Coupling of Aryl and Heteroaryl Thiols with Arylzinc Reagents
Yang, Bo,Wang, Zhong-Xia
, p. 6220 - 6223 (2017/11/24)
Cross-coupling of (hetero)arylthiols with arylzinc reagents via C-S cleavage was performed under transition-metal-free conditions. The reaction displays a wide scope of substrates and high functional-group tolerance. Electron-rich and -deficient (hetero)arylthiols and arylzinc reagents can be employed in this transformation. Mg2+ and Li+ ions were demonstrated to facilitate the reaction.
