A commercially available catalyst [Pd(MeCN)4](BF4)2 or a nitrile-free cationic palladium(II) complex generated in situ from the reaction of Pd(OAc)2 and HBF4, effectively catalyzes C–H activation/cross-coupling reactions between aryl iodides, arylboronic acids and acrylates

• palladacycle; (2) reaction of the cationic palladacycle with an aryl iodide, arylboronic acid or acrylate, and (3) regeneration of the active cationic palladium catalyst. The reaction between a cationic palladium(II) complex and arylurea allowed the formation and isolation of the corresponding palladacycle

• . Although reduced amounts of both phenylboronic acid (2b) and BQ still gave excellent yields, lower catalyst loadings caused slower reactions. A neutral palladium(II) complex, Pd(OAc)2, showed no catalytic acitivity, whereas catalytic Pd(OAc)2 in the presence of stoichiometric HBF4 reacted with an arylurea
