Abstract
Aryl mesylates are found to be applicable as electrophiles in organosilicon-mediated coupling reactions. The catalyst system comprising Pd(OAc)2 and CM-phos as ligand is highly effective in catalyzing Hiyama cross-coupling of various aryl and heteroaryl mesylates. The presence of acetic acid efficiently suppresses the mesylate decomposition.
