Abstract
The combination of a Ni and Pd complex with Zn as reductant and LiBr as an additive catalyzed a direct cross-coupling of two different sulfonate esters. Whereas Pd strongly prefers the aryl triflate, the Ni catalyst has a small preference for the aryl tosylate, aryl transfer between catalysts is mediated by Zn, and Pd improves yields by consuming arylzinc intermediates.
