Multiligand Enabled, Copper-Catalyzed Hiyama Coupling of Arylsilanes with Unactivated Secondary Alkyl Halides: Reaction Development and Mechanistic Insights
A multiligand-involved Cu catalysis offers an efficient Hiyama coupling of arylsilanes with unactivated alkyl halides, where copper with NHC and phenanthroline ligands were account for C(sp 2 )–Si activation and C(sp 2 )–C(sp 3 ) formation, respectively.
