Abstract
The cross-coupling reactions of allylboronic acid pinacol ester derivatives with aryl and heteroaryl halides occurred with high selectivity at the α-carbon of the allylboron reagent in the presence of Pd-PEPPSI-IPent precatalyst and aqueous KOH in refluxing THF. In the case of trisubstituted allylboronates with different substituents on the olefin, minor olefin geometry isomerization was observed.
