Abstract
A reusable silicon-based transfer agent enables effective room-temperature palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (CCRs) of aryl and heteroaryl chlorides with readily accessible aryl lithium reagents. The crystalline, bench-stable siloxane transfer agent is easily prepared via a one-step protocol. Importantly, this green CCR protocol generates LiCl as the only stoichiometric waste.
