A Ligand-Free Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Aryl Sulfinates with Aryl Bromides

Abstract

A ligand-free Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl sulfinates with aryl bromides has been developed. A variety of aryl bromides and aryl sulfinates undergo this transformation to yield the desired biaryl in a practical and economical manner.

Key words

palladium - sulfur - cross-coupling - catalysis - biaryls
