Abstract

A new catalytic system based on palladium phosphites for Suzuki coupling reactions of aryl bromides is described. An air-stable catalytic system effectively promotes Suzuki couplings of aryl bromides with a range of boronic acids to afford diaryl products in high yields.

Key words

cross-coupling - palladium - phosphorus - Suzuki-Miyaura coupling - phosphite
