In this study, we present an investigation into various nickel phosphite and phosphite–phosphine complexes for use in the Mizoroki–Heck and Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reactions and the ammonia arylation reaction. In these coupling reactions, it was discovered that the Ni[P(OEt)3]4, (dppf)Ni[P(OPh)3]2, and (binap)Ni[P(OPh)3]2 catalysts were the most effective. In addition, an optimisation process for these catalytic systems as well as functional group compatibility are discussed.

Cross-coupling between substrates that can be easily derived from phenols is highly attractive due to the abundance and low cost of phenols. Here, we report a dual nickel/palladium-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling between aryl tosylates and aryl triflates; both substrates can be accessed in just one step from readily available phenols. The reaction has a broad functional group tolerance and substrate scope (>60 examples). Furthermore, it displays low sensitivity to steric effects demonstrated by the synthesis of a 2,2’disubstituted biaryl and a fully substituted aryl product. The widespread presence of phenols in natural products and pharmaceuticals allow for straightforward late-stage functionalization, illustrated with examples such as Ezetimibe and tyrosine. NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations indicate that the nickel catalyst is responsible for activating the aryl triflate, while the palladium catalyst preferentially reacts with the aryl tosylate.

Orthogonal reactivity modes offer substantial opportunities for rapid construction of complex small molecules. However, most strategies for imparting orthogonality to cross-coupling reactions rely on differential protection of reactive sites, greatly reducing both atom and step economies. Reported here is a strategy for orthogonal cross-coupling wherein a mechanistically distinct activation mode for transmetalation of sp3-hybridized organoboron reagents enables C-C bond formation in the presence of various protected and unprotected sp2-hybridized organoborons. This manifold has the potential for broad application, because orthogonality is inherent to the activation mode itself. The diversification potential of this platform is shown in the rapid elaboration of a trifunctional lynchpin through various transition metal-catalyzed processes without nonproductive deprotection or functional group manipulation steps.

Stereoselective hydrometalation reactions of aryl- and alkyl-substituted trifluoromethylated alkynes with triethylsilane, tributylstannane, and triphenylgermane have been investigated. (E)-α-CF3-Vinylsilanes, -stannanes, and -germanes were obtained under palladium-catalyzed conditions whereas the corresponding (Z)-α-CF3-vinylgermanes were obtained under radical conditions. These reactions proceed in good to excellent yields and possess a broad functional group tolerance. Applications of the (Z)- and (E)-α-CF3-vinylgermanes in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with aryl halides having diverse electronic requirements were also investigated. The corresponding (Z)- and (E)-α-CF3-styrenes were obtained as single isomers, thus demonstrating the utility of these versatile synthons for the synthesis of stereodefined trifluoromethylated alkenes.

Over the past few decades, transition metal catalysis has witnessed a rapid and extensive development. The discovery and development of cross-coupling reactions is considered to be one of the most important advancements in the field of organic synthesis. The design and synthesis of well-defined and bench-stable transition metal pre-catalysts provide a significant improvement over the current catalytic systems in cross-coupling reactions, avoiding excess use of expensive ligands and harsh conditions for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and materials. Among various well-defined pre-catalysts, the use of Pd(II)-NHC, particularly, provided new avenues to expand the scope of cross-coupling reactions incorporating unreactive electrophiles, such as amides and esters. The strong σ-donation and tunable steric bulk of NHC ligands in Pd-NHC complexes facilitate oxidative addition and reductive elimination steps enabling the cross-coupling of broad range of amides and esters using facile conditions contrary to the arduous conditions employed under traditional catalytic conditions. Owing to the favorable catalytic activity of Pd-NHC catalysts, a tremendous progress was made in their utilization for cross-coupling reactions via selective acyl C–X (X=N, O) bond cleavage. This review highlights the recent advances made in the utilization of well-defined pre-catalysts for C–C and C–N bond forming reactions via selective amide and ester bond cleavage.

A systematic study of the widely used, titled name reaction transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with attention to context with the directed ortho metalation (DoM) is reported. In general, the Suzuki–Miyaura and Negishi protocols show greater scope and better yields than the Corriu–Kumada variant, although the latter qualitatively proceeds at fastest rate but has low functional group tolerance. The Negishi process is shown to be useful for substrates with nucleophile and base-sensitive functionality and it is comparable to the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction in efficiency. The link of these cross-coupling reactions to the DoM strategy lends itself to the regioselective construction of diversely substituted aromatics and heteroaromatics.

Solid supported catalysts have been of considerable interest in organic synthesis for the last few years. Solid support provides an efficient heterogeneous catalytic system owing to facile recovery and extensive recycling by simple filtration because of possessing 3-R approach (Recoverable, Robust and Recyclable) and makes solid supported catalyst more appealing nowadays. In view of the high cost and shortage of furthermost used palladium catalyst, its recovery and recycling are vital issues for any large-scale application which are being overcome by using solid supported catalytic systems. Therefore, a variety of inorganic and organic solid-supported catalytic systems have been developed so far in order to address these challenges. This review attempts highlight a number of solid supported catalytic systems in the pro-active area of widely used C-C cross coupling reactions.
