Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 24
Claim 1
Independent Claim 171 words
A method for coupling aryl and heteroaryl polyhalides which comprises contacting said aryl and heteroaryl polyhalides,wherein the halide is selected from Cl, Br,or I,or mixtures thereof, in an aprotic solvent with a catalyst mixture comprising an anhydrous nickel compound and at least one ligand selected from the group consisting of a triaryl phosphine having 6 to about 14 carbons in each aryl moiety and an aromatic bidentate compound containing at least one ring nitrogen atom and about 5 to about 30 carbon atoms in the presence of a reducing metal selected from the group consisting of zinc, magnesium, or manganese, or mixtures thereof, at a temperature of about 0 to about 250°C, wherein the ratio of equivalents of nickel to equivalents of aryl or heteroaryl polyhalide is in the range of about 0.0001 to about 0.5, the amount of ligand is from about 0.1 to about 100 moles per gram atom of nickel and the amount of reducing metal is at least 0.5 equivalent per equivalent of aryl or heteroaryl polyhalide.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 171 words
A method for coupling aryl and heteroaryl polyhalides which comprises contacting said aryl and heteroaryl polyhalides,wherein the halide is selected from Cl, Br,or I,or mixtures thereof, in an aprotic solvent with a catalyst mixture comprising an anhydrous nickel compound and at least one ligand selected from the group consisting of a triaryl phosphine having 6 to about 14 carbons in each aryl moiety and an aromatic bidentate compound containing at least one ring nitrogen atom and about 5 to about 30 carbon atoms in the presence of a reducing metal selected from the group consisting of zinc, magnesium, or manganese, or mixtures thereof, at a temperature of about 0 to about 250°C, wherein the ratio of equivalents of nickel to equivalents of aryl or heteroaryl polyhalide is in the range of about 0.0001 to about 0.5, the amount of ligand is from about 0.1 to about 100 moles per gram atom of nickel and the amount of reducing metal is at least 0.5 equivalent per equivalent of aryl or heteroaryl polyhalide.
