Generation of 3-Pyridyl Biaryl Systems via Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki Cross-Couplings of Aryl Halides with 3-Pyridylboroxin

Abstract

The synthesis of 3-pyridyl biaryl systems can be readily achieved by means of palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reactions between aryl halides and 3-pyridylboroxin. A series of cross-couplings were conducted in order to investigate the scope and limitations of this protocol.
