Abstract

An inexpensive and efficient Pd(OAc)2/tetra­methylguanidine (TMG) or PdCl2/TMG catalytic system has been developed for the Heck reaction of an olefin with an aryl halide. The TONs were up to 1000000 when iodobenzene was used as the ­substrate with butyl acrylate as the reactant. In addition, [Pd(TMG)4]Cl2(H2O)8, an air-stable compound, effectively pro­moted the Heck reaction, which demonstrated that TMG acted as a ligand in this reaction system.
