Recent advances in palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions: Exploration of catalytic systems, reaction parameters, and ligand influences: A review

Abstract

The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction is a landmark in synthetic chemistry for its effective ability to form carbon-carbon bonds. This palladium-catalyzed reaction, which couples boronic acids with halides or pseudohalides, has drastically simplified the synthesis of complex organic compounds. It is already playing a major role in the production of pharmaceutical products as well as agricultural chemicals and biomaterials, thus significantly changing modern industry by promoting cleaner, more sustainable ways to operate chemical plants. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent developments in palladium-catalyzed systems from 2020 to 2024, focusing on reaction parameters, and ligand variants, shedding light on their impact on yield, selectivity, kinetics, and purity. Our findings about the manifold potential of the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction to enhance reaction conditions and catalyst design underscore its flexibility. That makes possible a wide variety of uses.
