Abstract

Transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions have become some of the most important transformations in organic synthesis.(1) Among them, the Suzuki−Miyaura cross-coupling reaction has been recognized as an excellent tool for carbon−carbon bond formation,(2) because boron reagents are highly functional group tolerant, readily available, stable to air and moisture, and nontoxic. Despite significant advances, the electrophilic partner used in the ...
