Reaction of Diazonium Salts with Transition Metals. 8. Palladium-Catalyzed Carbon-Carbon Coupling of Arenediazonium Salts with Organotin Compounds

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00156a035

Arenediazonium salts are effectively functionalized with a methyl or vinyl group by palladium-catalyzed coupling with organotin compounds in acetonitrile at room temperature.Fairly good yields were obtained irrespective of the nature of a substituent on the aromatic ring, including a nitro group.Transformation of the diazonium group can proceed chemoselectively even in the presence of halogen substituents.
