The bigger the better : The new well‐defined [Pd(IPr*)(cin)Cl] pre‐catalyst is described (see scheme). This complex proves to be highly active in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross‐coupling for the synthesis of tetra‐ ortho ‐substituted biaryls under mild conditions. IPr* is reported as the largest N ‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) to date for [Pd(NHC)(cin)Cl] complexes, explaining the high reactivity observed for this complex in this challenging transformation.
