A highly efficient cross-coupling of diarylborinic acids and anhydrides with aryl chlorides and bromides has been effected by using a palladium catalyst system co-supported by a strong σ-donor N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), N,N′-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl) imidazol-2-ylidene, and a strong π-acceptor phosphite, triphenylphosphite, in tert-BuOH in the present of K3PO4·3H2O. Unsymmetrical biaryls with a variety of functional groups could be obtained in good to excellent yields using as low as 0.01, 0.2-0.5, and 1 mol % palladium loadings for aryl bromides and activated and deactivated aryl chlorides, respectively, under mild conditions. A ligand synergy between the σ-donor NHC and the π-acceptor phosphite in the Pd/NHC/P(OPh)3 catalytic system has been proposed to be responsible for the high efficacy to arylchlorides in the cross-coupling. A scalable and economical process has therefore been developed for synthesis of Sartan biphenyl from the Pd/NHC/P(OPh)3 catalyzed cross-coupling of di(4-methylphenyl)borinic acid with 2-chlorobenzonitrile.
