Abstract
Treatment of aryl chlorides vith catalytic amounts of (PPh3)(2)NiCl2+PPh3 i n the presence of Lin equivalent of Me2NH . BH3 and either K2CO3 or Cs2CO3 in CH3CN under mild conditions lea's to the corresponding product of reduct ion. Aril bromides and iodides can also be reduced, selectively, using this reagent combination. (C), 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
