Abstract: New, sterically demanding1,3-dialkylimidazolinium salts used as N-heterocyclic carbene precursors were synthesized and characterized. These salts, combined with palladium acetate, provided active catalysts for Heck and suzuki cross-coupling of aryl chlorides and bromides under mild conditions.

Key words: Heck reaction, Suzuki reaction, aryl halide, imidazolinium salt, palladium, carbene
