In this work, the five new Pd PEPPSI-type complexes bearing NHC spectator ligands were synthesized and characterized by a bunch of spectroscopic techniques. Further confirmations of structural details were provided by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study of one pro-ligand and one complex. All these newly synthesized Pd-carbene complexes were found significantly active as catalysts toward direct arylation of five members heterocyclic compounds such as n-propylthaizole, 2-acetylfurane and 2-acetylthiophene with aryl bromides derivatives. These catalysts give significantly good results within two hours with just 1 mol % catalyst loading.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBenzimidazolium ChloridesPalladium-PEPPSIHomogeneous catalystC-H bond activationDirect arylation reactionArticle20810.1016/j.poly.2021.1154122-s2.0-85112364797Q2WOS:000696897500009Q2
