Abstract
AbstractTwo zinc complexes, [L1Zn2Et2]n (1) and [L2Zn2Et2] (2), were synthesized by reacting bis(β‐diketiminate) ligands H2L1 and H2L2 with ZnEt2. X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction analysis indicated that compound 1 displays a novel one‐dimensional chain structure. Compound 2 is dinuclear. The two compounds were employed to catalyze the coupling reaction of aryl iodides with B2Pin2. They were both catalytically active toward this transformation. Compound 1 exhibited higher catalytic activity than that of complex 2. The borylation reactions catalyzed by 1 possess the features of milder conditions, high functional group tolerance and wide range of substrate scopes.
