New Trifl uoroborate Salts for Suzuki Coupling from Aldrich R&D

Aldrich ChemFiles 2005, 5.5, 11.

Trifluoroborates are air-stable alternatives to boronic acids in palladium-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reactions.^1,2 They are more robust, easier to handle, and less prone to protodeboronation.¹ They display a remarkably uniform behavior.²
