The air- and moisture-stable phosphine-free palladium(0) complex 1 is a highly active and recoverable catalyst for Heck olefination of aryl diazonium tetrafluoroborates. The reactions were performed under aerobic conditions at room temperature to give the coupling products in excellent yields. [reaction: see text]
