Description
Summary:This study describes our findings on a novel and cheap NiCl 2 catalytic system under ligand-free conditions for the efficient thiocarbonylation, alkoxycarbonylation and amidocarbonylation reactions of aryl iodides in the presence of Cr(CO) 6 as the solid source of carbon monoxide under air. A variety of aryl iodides tolerated the reaction conditions and structurally different thiols, alcohols and amines were used efficiently. The corresponding thioesters, esters and amides were obtained in good to excellent yield at atmospheric pressure under mild reaction conditions.
