Facile and economical Miyaura borylation and one-pot Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction

Abstract Facile and economical method for Miyaura borylation reaction between B2pin2 and aryl bromides is reported. The catalytic system containing 2 mol% PdCl2(PPh3)2 and KOAc serves to enable borylations to occur under solvent-free and atmospheric conditions. The developed protocol can be applied to synthesize symmetrical and unsymmetrical biaryls via one-pot two-step Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction and also offers the up-scalability.
