Synthesis
General procedure for the synthesis of 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl from 2-bromobiphenyl and dicyclohexylphosphine: under nitrogen protection, a mixture of L1 (0.05 or 0.10 mmol P), [PdCl(η3-C3H5)]2 (0.025 mmol), 2-bromobiphenyl (0.55 mmol) and dicyclohexylphosphine (0.50 mmol) was reacted in a 20 M KOH The mixture in aqueous solution (0.5-1.0 mL) was reacted by shaking at 100 °C for several hours. After completion of the reaction, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered. The aqueous filtrate was extracted with degassed toluene (2 mL x 2 times). For the recovered catalyst resin beads, extract with degassed toluene (2 mL x 4 times). All extracts were combined and dried with anhydrous Na2SO4, followed by concentration under vacuum to obtain the crude product. The crude product was purified by silica gel fast chromatography using degassed eluent (n-hexane/Et2O = 10/0-9/1), and the purification process was completed by a YAMAZEN medium-pressure liquid chromatography system, which ultimately yielded the target product 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl.
