The use of bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes (BCPs) as <i>para</i>-disubstituted aryl bioisosteres has gained considerable momentum in drug development programs. Carbon-carbon bond formation via transition-metal-mediated cross-coupling represents an attractive strategy to generate BCP-aryl compounds for late-stage functionalization, but these typically require reactive organometallics to prepare BCP nucleophiles on demand from [1.1.1]propellane. In this study, the synthesis and Ni-catalyzed functionalizati ...[more]
