Abstract
A catalytic system utilizing a chelate carbene ligand containing bulk tert-butyl groups has been used for palladium-catalyzed Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions. The catalyst system performs well with low loadings of Pd(OAc)2. Heck reactions with monosubstituted olefins provide the trans-configured products, while 1,1-disubstituted olefins favor the terminal product.
