The orientation of Ar-C, Ar-N and Ar-O bonds in biaryls, N,N′-diarylureas and diaryl ethers (whose conformers are distinguishable by NMR) may be controlled with a selectivity up to >95: 5 by an adjacent stereogenic centre; the selectivity may be greater when a second stereogenic axis is inserted between the controlling centre and the slowly rotating bond.

Highly active palladium catalysts for Suzuki coupling reactions

Mixtures of palladium acetate and o-(di-tert-butylphosphino)biphenyl (4) catalyze the room-temperature Suzuki coupling of aryl bromides and aryl chlorides with 0.5-1.0 mol % Pd. Use of o-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl (2) allows Suzuki couplings to be carried out at low catalyst loadings (0.000001-0.02 mol % Pd). The process tolerates a broad range of functional groups and substrate combinations including the use of sterically hindered substrates. This is the most active catalyst system in terms of reaction temperature, turnover number, and steric tolerance which has been reported to date.
