Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions of phenylboronic and 1,4-phenylenediboronic acid with ArBr to form bi-and teraryls have been efficiently catalyzed by the air-and moisture-insensitive complexes [PdCl 2 L1] [1, L1 = 2-(pyridine-2-ylmethyl)sulfanylbenzoic acid; 0.05-0.5 mol-%] and [Pd(L2-H) 2 ] (2, L2-H = 2-pyridin-2-yl-benzo[b]thiophen-3-ol; 0.01-0.5 mol-%). The complexes were formed by the reaction of [Pd(CH 3 CN) 2 Cl 2 ] with L1, and the catalysis proceeds in water for 1. The loading of 0.1-0.5 mol-% of Pd is very promising for the coupling reactions to form teraryls. The COOH group imparts solubility to 1 in water. Ligand L2 is formed by the unprecedented cyclization of L1 in the course of the complexation reaction. The yield of 2 increases with the reac-Biaryl compounds are important for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, natural products, and functional materials. [1][2][3][4] Teraryls have attracted attention owing to their presence as structural units in natural products. In materials science, chemical sensing, and some biological activity, the potential role of teraryls has been recognized. [5][6][7] Palladium-catalyzed C-C Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions [8] are very important synthetic tools for the synthesis of biand teraryls. Various Pd II complexes of nitrogen, [9] phosphorus, [10] N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), [11] and chalcogen [12] ligands have been employed for such couplings. To develop the best catalytic system for Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions, separation, air and moisture insensitivity, recyclability, required loading, and the environmental friendliness of the catalyst are some of the strategic aspects. The use of environmentally friendly water as a solvent for the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling [13] is of great interest because it is not only safe, nontoxic, inexpensive, and plentiful [14] [a]
