Abstract

Highly selective carbonylative Suzuki reactions of aryl iodides with arylboronic acids using an in situ generated nanopalladium system under ambient conditions and in the absence of an added ligand furnished products in high yields. The addition of pivalic acid can effectively suppress an undesired Suzuki coupling. The synthesis can be easily scaled up, and the catalytic system can be reused up to nine times.
