Iron-Mediated Direct Suzuki−Miyaura Reaction: A New Method for the <i>ortho</i>-Arylation of Pyrrole and Pyridine

Abstract

The first example of an iron-mediated direct Suzuki-Miyaura reaction between N-heterocyclic compounds and arylboronic acids is described, and both electron-rich and electron-deficient heteroarenes can be successfully used for the coupling reaction.
