Abstract

The palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of potassium alkynyltrifluoroborates with aryl halides or triflates proceeds readily with moderate to excellent yields. The potassium alkynyltrifluoroborates are air-and moisture-stable crystalline solids that can be stored indefinitely, which will provide an advantage in applications to combinatorial chemistry. The alkynyl cross-coupling reaction can be effected using 9 mol% of PdCl2 (dppf)⊙ CH2Cl2 ...
