title: An efficient low-temperature Stille-Migita cross-coupling reaction for heteroaromatic compounds by Pd-PEPPSI-IPent.
abstract: The reactivity of Pd-PEPPSI (Pyridine, Enhanced, Precatalyst, Preparation, Stabilization, and Initiation) precatalysts in the Stille-Migita cross-coupling reaction between heteroaryl stannanes and aryl or heteroaryl halides was evaluated. In general, Pd-PEPPSI-IPent (IPent=diisopentylphenylimidazolium derivative) demonstrated high efficiency over a variety of challenging aryl or heteroaryl halides with thiophene-, furan-, pyrrole-, and thiazole-based organostannanes when compared with Pd-PEPPSI-IPr (IPr=diisopropylphenylimidazolium derivative). The transformations proceeded at appreciably lower temperatures (30-80 degrees C) than triarylphosphine-based Pd catalysts, improving the scope of this useful carbon-carbon bond-forming process.
