Unsymmetrical biaryls are obtained in high yields from cross coupling of arylboronic acids with haloarenes in the presence of a base using palladium acetate as a catalyst for reactions in aqueous ethanol at ambient temperature in the absence of oxygen.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
