Abstract

The development of a novel Suzuki-Miyaura method has been achieved to allow the efficient arylation of bromophenols. A range of functionality is tolerated with regard to the boronic acid coupling partner and the reaction exhibits complete chemoselectivity for the Caryl-Br bond versus the Caryl-Cl bond in the aryl halide input. The experimental protocol features a short reaction time of 15 min, utilizes inexpensive Pd/C as a catalyst, and is conducted with water as the solvent.
