A General and Straightforward Route toward Diarylmethanes. Integrated Cross-Coupling Reactions Using (2-Pyridyl)silylmethylstannane as an Air-Stable, Storable, and Versatile Coupling Platform

[reaction: see text] Pharmacologically important diarylmethane structures have been prepared in a straightforward manner through sequentially integrated Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. (2-Pyridyl)silylmethylstannane was found to be an air-stable, storable, and versatile coupling platform in this synthetic strategy.
