The selectivity and the rate of these reactions are highly dependent on the conditions, i.e., nature of the palladium catalyst precursor, solvent, temperature and CO pressure. The main side-products arise from direct, non-carbonylative cross-coupling. Under the optimum conditions, arylpyridine ketones are recovered in high yields (60-88%). The antibacterial activities of the corresponding benzimidazole salts 2 were tested against Gram positive and negative bacteria using the agar dilution procedure, and their IC50 values have been determined.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSuzuki-Miyaura ReactionNitrogen Double-BondsOxidative AdditionAryl Chlorides(Nhc)Pd(Allyl)Cl NhcHeteroaryl HalidesConvenient AccessPyridine HalidesPd(Ii) ComplexesBoronic AcidsIn situ palladium/N-heterocyclic carbene complex catalyzed carbonylative cross-coupling reactions of arylboronic acids with 2-bromopyridine under CO pressure: efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical arylpyridine ketones and their antimicrobial activitiesArticle44432132810.1007/s11243-018-00298-92-s2.0-85058962185Q2WOS:000468624800003Q3
