Three known iron(II) complexes bearing a bipyridine ligand, [FeCl2(bpy)2] (1), [FeCl2(bpy)]2 (2) and [FeCl2(dmbpy)] (3) (bpy=2,2′-bipyridine and dmbpy=6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine) were employed for the cross-coupling reaction of bromocyclohexane (4) with phenylmagnesium bromide (5). These complexes catalyzed the cross-coupling reaction. Among the three catalysts, complex 2 acted as an effective catalyst to afford the cross-coupled product phenylcyclohexane (6) in 92% yield. The X-ray crystal structure analyses of 2 and 3 were demonstrated.
