Abstract:
Ligand precursors for amido/amidate-functionalized triazole-based MIC ligands were synthesized. An initial theoretical calculation confirmed that triazole-based MIC ligands were promising ligands in terms of their σ-donating and π-acidic properties. Based on these ligand precursors, three different types of palladium complexes were successfully obtained, namely (1) a PEPPSI-type MIC complex, (2) a complex containing both a bidentate ligand of a MIC and an amidate donor and a mondentate NHC derived from nitron, and (3) a complex featuring a tridentate ligand of a MIC, an amidate, and a phenoxy donor. The structures of all these complexes were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Imidazole derivatives are important heterocycles with enormous medicinal value. The catalytic activities of these new palladium complexes in the green direct C-H arylation of imidazoles with aryl halides were investigated and compared to those delivered from palladium complexes with IMes and triazole-based normal NHC ligands. Among the new complexes, the PEPPSI-type palladium complex with the monodentate triazole-based MIC ligand was found to be a very promising precatalyst which was capable of utilizing electron-deficient aryl chlorides as coupling partners in the reaction.
