Abstract

A general procedure for the syntheses of diarylmercurials is presented. Reactions proceeded in isopropanol in the presence of a base and arylboronic acid. With one exception, all reactions proceeded in good to excellent yields, and this procedure was applicable to a variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic boronic acids. Products were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and microanalysis, and investigated by ...
