Abstract

N-Methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) as a simple, air stable and water-soluble ligand has been used in the palladium-catalyzed Hiyama cross-coupling reaction of trimethoxyphenylsilane with aryl halides. The yield of the corresponding Hiyama coupling products is high up to around 90% in water and isopropanol under an ambient atmosphere in the presence of KOH and NaF.
