Article Synopsis
- A new family of ligands, called biaryl phosphacyclic ligands, is created from phobane and phosphatrioxa-adamantane structures.
- These ligands are effective in facilitating the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of tough aryl bromides and chlorides.
- Notably, they can engage in reactions with challenging sterically hindered and heterocyclic compounds at room temperature.
The effect of ethylene tetramerisation ligand structures on 1-octene selectivity is well studied. However, by-product formation is less understood. In this work, a range of PNP ligand structures are correlated with the full product selectivity and with catalyst activity.
