Abstract

The C-S cross-coupling of aryl halides with alkyl thiols catalyzed by in-situ generated Ni (II) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes is investigated. Good to excellent yields can be obtained for a variety of aryl halides when using 5 mol% of the Ni (II)-NHC catalyst and 1.5 eq. of KO^tBu. Both the electronic and steric effects of the NHC ligands on the catalytic performance of Ni (II)-NHC, as well as the electronic effects of aryl halides on coupling reactivity are examined. The mechanism for Ni (II)-NHC catalyzed coupling reactions is also discussed.
