Common Catalysts and Ligands for C-O Coupling Reactions

C-O coupling reactions are an important class of organic reactions, which are widely used in the fields of drug synthesis, natural product preparation and polymer materials. Common catalysts and ligands have been widely used and optimized in different researches.

Types Examples
Common Catalysts Palladium (Pd) Catalysts:
  • Pd(PPh₃)₄ Widely used in C-O coupling reactions, especially the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction.
  • Pd(OAc)₂ Often used to catalyze C-O bond formation in concert with ligands.
  • Pd₂(dba)₃ is an efficient precursor catalyst for a wide range of coupling reactions.
Copper (Cu) Catalysts:
  • CuI is commonly used in Ullmann-type C-O coupling reactions and is less costly.
  • Cu(OTf)₂ shows high activity under certain conditions.
Nickel (Ni) Catalysts:
  • Ni(cod)₂ is used in C-O coupling reactions, especially when synergized with azetidic ligands.
  • NiCl₂ is economical and practical for some specific reactions.
Other Metal Catalysts:
  • Precious metal catalysts such as Au (gold) and Pt (platinum) are also used in some specific C-O coupling reactions.
Common Ligands Nitrogen-oxygen Ligands:
  • Nitrogen-oxygen ligands show good results in copper-catalyzed C-O coupling reactions.
Oxalylhydrazine Ligands:
  • Oxalylhydrazine ligands (e.g., L1) exhibit excellent performance in copper-catalyzed C-O coupling reactions, significantly extending catalyst life and increasing the TON of the reaction.
Bidentate Ligands
  • Bidentate ligands including o-phenanthroline, bipyridine, and diamine analogs are also widely used in copper-catalyzed C-O coupling reactions.
Other Ligands:
  • Anionic bidentate ligands (e.g., 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, 8-hydroxyquinolines) have also been used in copper-catalyzed C-O coupling reactions.
