Divergent Synthesis of 2,3,5-Substituted Thiophenes by C-H Activation/Borylation/Suzuki Coupling

Abstract

C-H activation/borylation has been married with Suzuki coupling to prepare DuP 697 (1) and analogs that would be otherwise difficult to obtain via the traditional synthetic route to 1. X O MeS PhF, AlCl 3 O F MeS O Cl
