S. Darses et al., PALLADIUM-CATALYZED CROSS-COUPLING REACTIONS OF ARENEDIAZONIUM TETRAFLUOROBORATES WITH ARYLBORONIC AND ALKENYLBORONIC ACIDS, Bulletin de la Societe chimique de France, 133(11), 1996, pp. 1095-1102
Arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates undergo a facile and efficient palla
dium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction with aryl- and alkenylboronic a
cids at ambient temperature, without addition of base. The reaction de
scribed is characterized by a high chemoselectivity because bromide an
d triflate functional groups are tolerated.
