A Rationally Designed Universal Catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura Coupling Processes

Abstract

Unprecedented scope, reactivity, and stability are displayed by a new catalyst system. This was demonstrated with general and efficient syntheses of sterically hindered (hetero)biaryls (see examples shown), mild coupling reactions of alkyl boron derivatives, and rapid coupling reactions of aryl chlorides at room temperature.
