Abstract
The Suzuki cross-coupling of 3-iodoselenophenes with boronic acids in the presence of catalytic amount of palladium salt is described. This cross-coupling reaction proceeded cleanly under mild conditions and was performed with aryl boronic acids bearing electron-withdrawing, electron-donating, and neutral substituents, furnishing the correspondents products in moderate to good yields.
Key words
palladium - Suzuki cross-coupling - selenophene - boronic acid

General Procedure for the Cross-Coupling Reaction
To a solution of appropriate 3-iodoselenophene (0.25 mmol) in DME (2.5 mL) was added Pd(OAc)2 (0.003g, 5 mol%) and boronic acid (0.35 mmol) under argon. The resulting solution was stirred for 30 min at r.t. After this time, a solution of K3 PO4 (1.2 mmol, 0.254 g) in H2 O (0.6 mL) was added. The mixture was then heated at reflux during 1-15 h, cooled to r.t., diluted with CH2 Cl2 (20 mL), and washed with brine (2 × 20 mL). The organic phase was separated, dried over MgSO4 , and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using hexane as eluent.
