Abstract

A convenient and efficient flow method for Ullmann condensations, Sonogashira couplings, and decarboxylation reactions using a commercially available copper tube flow reactor (CTFR) is described. The heated CTFR effects these transformations without added metals (eg, Pd), ligands, or reagents, and in greater than 90% yield in most cases examined.
