Treatment of aryl chlorides with catalytic amounts of (PPh3)2NiCl2+PPh3 in the presence of an equivalent of Me2NH·BH3 and either K2CO3 or Cs2CO3 in CH3CN under mild conditions leads to the corresponding product of reduction. Aryl bromides and iodides can also be reduced, selectively, using this reagent combination.
