Abstract

Aromatic and heteroaromatic boronic esters are an extremely valuable class of synthetic intermediates in modern organic chemistry. 1 Although these compounds undergo many transformations, the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with aryl/heteroaryl halides is arguably the most widely studied within academia and the fine chemicals industry. 2 Moreover, among the plethora of biaryl compounds that can be prepared by this strategy, pyridine-containing compounds are of significant ...
