IPr·HCl (1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolium chloride) is the most widely deployed NHC precatalyst in modern transition-metal catalysis. The sterically demanding IPr carbene enables challenging Suzuki-Miyaura, Buchwald-Hartwig, and α-arylation reactions with low catalyst loadings.

Applications

  • Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl chlorides (Pd/IPr)
  • Buchwald-Hartwig amination
  • α-Arylation of carbonyl compounds
  • Nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling
