Abstract

Ketone-, ester-, and amide-containing potassium trifluoroboratohomoenolates were prepared in good yields from the corresponding unsaturated carbonyl compounds. They are effective coupling partners in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction with various electrophiles including electron-rich and electron-poor aryl bromides and -chlorides.
