Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of potassium dioxolanylethyltrifluoroborate and aryl/heteroaryl chlorides.

ABSTRACT: A robust and efficient protocol for the introduction of the dioxolanylethyl moiety onto various aryl and heteroaryl halides has been developed, providing cross-coupling yields up to 93%. Copper-catalyzed borylation of 2-(2-bromoethyl)-1,3-dioxolane with bis(pinacolato)diboron followed by treatment with potassium bifluoride provides the key organotrifluoroborate reagent.
