- Nickel-catalyzed monoarylation of ammonia
-
Structurally diverse (hetero)aryl chloride, bromide, and tosylate electrophiles were employed in the Ni-catalyzed monoarylation of ammonia, including chemoselective transformations. The employed JosiPhos/[Ni(cod)2] catalyst system enables the use of commercially available stock solutions of ammonia, or the use of ammonia gas in these reactions, thereby demonstrating the versatility and potential scalability of the reported protocol. Proof-of-principle experiments established that air-stable [(JosiPhos)NiCl2] precatalysts can be employed successfully in such transformations. Lighten Up: The substrate scope of the title reaction includes (hetero)aryl chloride, bromide, and tosylate electrophiles. The versatility and potential scalability of the reported method is demonstrated by the use of either commercially available stock solutions of ammonia or ammonia gas.

- An examination of the palladium/Mor-DalPhos catalyst system in the context of selective ammonia monoarylation at room temperature
-
An examination of the [{Pd(cinnamyl)Cl}2]/Mor-DalPhos (Mor-DalPhos=di(1-adamantyl)-2-morpholinophenylphosphine) catalyst system in Buchwald-Hartwig aminations employing ammonia was conducted to better understand the catalyst formation process and to guide the development of precatalysts for otherwise challenging room-temperature ammonia monoarylations. The combination of [{Pd(cinnamyl)Cl}2] and Mor-DalPhos afforded [(κ 2-P,N-Mor-DalPhos)Pd(η1-cinnamyl)Cl] (2), which, in the presence of a base and chlorobenzene, generated [(κ2-P,N- Mor-DalPhos)Pd(Ph)Cl] (1 a). Halide abstraction from 1 a afforded [(κ3-P,N,O-Mor-DalPhos)Pd(Ph)]OTf (5), bringing to light a potential stabilizing interaction that is offered by Mor-DalPhos. An examination of [(κ2-P,N-Mor-DalPhos)Pd(aryl)Cl] (1 b-f) and related precatalysts for the coupling of ammonia and chlorobenzene at room temperature established the suitability of 1 a in such challenging applications. The scope of reactivity for the use of 1 a (5 mol %) encompassed a range of (hetero)aryl (pseudo)halides (X=Cl, Br, I, OTs) with diverse substituents (alkyl, aryl, ether, thioether, ketone, amine, fluoro, trifluoromethyl, and nitrile), including chemoselective arylations.

- A P,N-Ligand for palladium-catalyzed ammonia arylation: Coupling of deactivated aryl chlorides, chemoselective arylations, and room temperature reactions
-
(Figure Presented) Amazing ammonia: A new air-stable P,N-ligand (Mor-DalPhos) is reported that enables the palladium-catalyzed crosscoupling of ammonia to a variety of aryl chloride and aryl tosylate substrates with high chemoselectivity and, for the first time, at room temperature (see scheme; Ad = adamantyl, Ts=para-toluenesulfonyl).
