Directed ortho metalation and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling connections: regiospecific synthesis of all isomeric chlorodihydroxybiphenyls for microbial degradation studies of PCBs
S. Nerdinger et al., Directed ortho metalation and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling connections: regiospecific synthesis of all isomeric chlorodihydroxybiphenyls for microbial degradation studies of PCBs, CHEM COMMUN, (22), 1999, pp. 2259-2260
Monochloro DHBs 1a-d and 2a-c have been regioselectively synthesised in goo
d overall yields by a combination of directed ortho metalation and Suzuki-M
iyaura cross-coupling.
