Synthesis of Aryl‐Substituted Pyrimidines by Site‐Selective Suzuki–Miyura Cross‐Coupling Reactions of 2,4,5,6‐Tetrachloropyrimidine

Abstract Suzuki–Miyaura reactions of 2,4,5,6‐tetrachloropyrimidine allow a convenient synthesis of mono‐, di‐, tri‐ and tetraarylpyrimidines which are not readily available by other methods. All reactions proceed with excellent site‐selectivity.
