title: An extremely active and general catalyst for Suzuki coupling reaction of unreactive aryl chlorides.
abstract: β-Diketiminatophosphane Pd complex 2a acted as a powerful catalyst which allows easy access to the Suzuki coupling reaction of less reactive aryl chlorides under mild conditions. A wide range of sterically hindered and deactivated aryl chlorides could be efficiently coupled at a low catalyst loading of 0.1 mol %. Furthermore, this catalytic system also proved to be highly effective in one-pot multiple couplings.
