A Ni-catalyzed
method for the coupling of perfluorobenzoates with
aryl halides and pseudohalides is described. Aryl iodides, bromides,
chlorides, triflates, and tosylates participate in these transformations
to afford the products in good yields. Penta-, tetra-, and trifluorinated
biaryl compounds are obtained using these newly developed Ni-catalyzed
decarboxylative cross-coupling reactions.
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.
