Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of in situ generated allylindium reagents with aryl halides

초록

(equation presented) X = Br, I In situ generated allylindium reagents from the reaction of 1 equiv of indium with 1.5 equiv of allyl halides could be effective cross-coupling partners in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to aryl halides. The best results were obtained with 2% Pd<inf>2</inf>dba<inf>3</inf>CHCl<inf>3</inf> and 16% Ph<inf>3</inf>P in the presence of 3 equiv of LiCl in DMF at 100 °C.
