better functional group tolerance and the reactions can be car-
ried out efficiently at lower equivalents of arene substrates
compared to previously reported systems. Notably, mechanis-
tic investigations, including a kinetic study and stoichiometric
reactions with potential intermediate complexes, clearly sup-
ported a cooperative bimetallic mechanism. The significant
effect of the electronic properties of aryl bromides to the reac-
tion could be attributed to a transmetalation step.
