Highly Reactive, General, and Long‐Lived Catalysts for Coupling Heteroaryl and Aryl Chlorides with Primary Nitrogen Nucleophiles

Resisting pathways for decomposition followed by palladium complexes of monodentate ligands is one characteristic of the highly reactive but long-lived catalyst generated from the Josiphos ligand L and palladium. It catalyzes under mild conditions the coupling of primary amines with chloropyridines and chloroarenes in high yield with low catalyst loadings (see scheme).
