Application
[1,1'-Bis(di-cyclohexylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II) serves as an air-stable catalyst designed to facilitate key reactions in organic synthesis. This catalyst is particularly effective in the arylation of ketones using aryl chlorides and aryl bromides, enabling the formation of α-aryl carbonyl compounds. Additionally, it is instrumental in the synthesis of α, β-unsaturated amides through the hydroaminocarbonylation of alkynes with tertiary amines. It also supports the creation of quinazoline derivatives through the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction, even in the presence of unprotected NH2 groups in quinazolines and arylboronic acids. This multifaceted utility makes it an invaluable tool in advancing synthetic methodology.
