Abstract

A Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of tetrabutylammonium 2-pyridyltriolborate salts with various aryl and heteroaryl chlorides produces the corresponding desired coupling products with good to excellent yields in the presence of catalytic amounts of PdCl₂dcpp and CuI/MeNHCH₂CH₂OH in anhydrous DMF without bases. Tetrabutylammonium 2-pyridyltriolborate salts are more reactive than the corresponding lithium salts.
