Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions between a variety of alkyl halides and unactivated aryl boronic esters using a rationally designed iron-based catalyst supported by beta-diketiminate ligands are described. High catalyst activity resulted in a broad substrate scope that included tertiary alkyl halides and heteroaromatic boronic esters. Mechanistic experiments revealed that the iron-based catalyst benefited from the propensity for beta-diketiminate ligands to support low-coordinate and highly reducing iron amide intermediates, which are very efficient for effecting the transmetalation step required for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction.
