High yielding alkylations of unactivated sp3 and sp2 centres with alkyl-9-BBN reagents using an NHC-based catalyst: Pd-PEPPSI-IPr

Cory Valente, Sylvia Baglione, David Candito, Christopher J. O'Brien and Michael G. Organ

High yielding, room temperature cross couplings of unactivated alkyl bromides and aryl bromides/chlorides with alkyl-9-BBN reagents has been achieved using an NHC-based catalyst (Pd-PEPPSI-IPr) via a general, functional-group tolerant and easily implemented protocol.
