Computational Characterization of the Role of the Base in the Suzuki−Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reaction

Abstract

The role of the base in the transmetalation step of the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction is analyzed computationally by means of DFT calculations with the Becke3LYP functional. The model system studied consists of Pd(CH=CH2)(PH3)2Br as the starting catalyst complex, CH2=CHB(OH)2 as the organoboronic acid, and OH- as the base. The two main mechanistic proposals, consisting of the base attacking first either the palladium complex or the organoboronic acid, are evaluated through geometry optimization of the corresponding intermediates and transition states. Supplementary calculations are carried out on the uncatalyzed reaction and on a process where the starting complex is Pd(CH=CH2)(PH3)2(OH). These calculations, considered together with available experimental data, strongly suggest that the main mechanism of transmetalation in the catalytic cycle starts with the reaction of the base and the organoboronic acid.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
