Preparation and application of mixed-ligand nickel(II) complex containing bisoxazoline-derived nitrogen heterocyclic carbene ligand and phosphite ligand

Abstract

The invention discloses a mixed Ni(II) complex containing bisoxazoline-derived nitrogen heterocyclic carbene ligand and phosphite ligand and application thereof; the chemical formula of the mixed Ni(II) complex is Ni(NHC)[P(OR)3]X2, wherein R is ethyl or isopropyl, X is bromine or chlorine, and NHC is a bisoxazoline-derived nitrogen heterocyclic carbene ligand. In the presence of magnesium shavings, the mixed Ni(II) complex containing bisoxazoline-derived nitrogen heterocyclic carbene ligand and phosphite ligand of the present invention can catalyze low-activity chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons and fluorinated aromatic hydrocarbons with chlorinated benzyl compounds, respectively, reductive cross-coupling reaction at a single temperature, generating a diarylmethane compound in one step, providing a new method for the synthesis of diarylmethane compounds.
