Enhancing activity and selectivity of palladium catalysts in ketone α-arylation by tailoring the imine chelate of pyridinium amidate (PYA) ligands

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Palladium complexes with chelating pyridinium amidate ligands are efficient catalysts for the α-arylation of ketones. Their catalytic activity depends on the chelating group at the PYA, with iPr-substituted pyrazole PYAs reaching high turnover frequencies.
