boronic acid couplings were carried out using the SPhos-containing
palladacycle 11. 121 It has also been demonstrated that a combination of
palladacycle with added free ligand may sometimes improve the reactions
compared with the use of the palladacycle alone. 122,123 Despite the potential
of the second-generation palladacycles, a couple of drawbacks limit their
scope for use in coupling reactions: first, they cannot be generated using
extremely bulky ligands, such as t-BuBrettPhos; and second, they decompose
in solution with extended periods of time.
The most recent addition to the palladacycle class of precatalysts is a
third-generation palladacycle that contains an OMs group in place of a
chloride (Scheme 3.40). 124 This improved family of catalysts display greater
solution stability than the chloride-containing catalysts.
The most recently reported palladacycles containing a mesylate ligand in
place of the chloride have been used in a number of applications, such as
cyanation of heteroaryl halides, 125 synthesis of aryl ethers, 126,127 monoaryl-
ation of ammonia with a wide range of aryl- and heteroaryl halides, 128 aryl-
ation of primary amides 127 and Negishi coupling reactions (Scheme 3.41). 129
