Jamison Nickel (II) Precatalysts

Introduction

Nickel catalysis has broad synthetic utility. However, the dearth of bench-stable nickel(0) sources and high catalyst loadings have limited its use.1 The Jamison group has developed a library of bench-stable phosphine-containing nickel(II) precatalysts that are converted into active catalysts in situ.2,3

Advantages

  • Air- and water-stable
  • Converted to the active catalyst in situ
  • Can be used under ambient conditions – glovebox not necessary
