Air stable, phosphine-free anionic palladacyclopentadienyl catalysts: Remarkable halide and pseudohalide effects in Stille coupling (2006)

Crawforth, C.M., Fairlamb, I.J.S., Kapdi, A.R., Serrano, J.L., Taylor, R.J.K., Sanchez, G.

The Stille cross-coupling of allylic and benzyl bromides is shown to proceed efficiently using phosphine-free dinuclear anionic palladacyclopentadienyl catalysts possessing bridging (N,O)-imidate...

Oxidative addition of N-halosuccinimides to palladium(0): The discovery of neutral palladium(II) imidate ligands, which enhance Stille coupling of allylic and benzylic halides (2005)

Crawforth, C.M., Burling, S., Fairlamb, I.J.S., Kapdi, A.R., Taylor, R.J.K., Whitwood, A.C.

The Stille coupling of organostannanes and organohalides, mediated by air and moisture stable palladium(II) phosphine complexes containing succinimide or phthalimide (imidate) ligands, has been...
