Abstract

The selective functionalization of aryl and heteroaryl compounds is an important synthetic task. The resulting polyfunctional (hetero) aryl derivatives are often essential building blocks in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and new organic materials.[1] We envisaged that bimetallic [2] aromatic derivatives of type 1, which bear two metal-centered substituents of distinctly different reactivity, would be useful reagents. Their stepwise ...
