Microwave-Accelerated Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling Reactions Using Potassium Aryltrifluoroborates

Abstract

The microwave-accelerated Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of bromoarenes and potassium aryltrifluoroborates in good to excellent yields is described. The method does not require the use of phosphine ligands or phase-transfer catalysts and reactions are complete in 20 minutes.
