title: An N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Nickel Half-Sandwich Complex as a Precatalyst for Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling of Aryl/Heteroaryl Halides with Aryl/Heteroarylboronic Acids.
abstract: A nickel half-sandwich complex supported by our original NHC ligand was developed as a robust precatalyst for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling. The addition of PPh3was a crucial element in the suppression of side reactions and in accelerating the cross-coupling reaction. By employing the optimal conditions, aryl-aryl, heteroaryl-aryl, and heteroaryl-heteroaryl couplings were achieved.
