Abstract

The iterative synthesis of oligoarenes via an organoborane-based cross-coupling reaction (ie, the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling) has been achieved by using a series of “masked” haloarylboronic acids as building blocks whose ordinarily reactive boronyl groups are temporarily protected by a new masking group derived from 1, 8-diaminonaphthalene.
