Article abstract of DOI:10.1055/s-1994-25659

A series of functionally substituted 4-aryl-2,6-di-tert-butylphenols were prepared by the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction (Suzuki reaction) of aryl halides with a novel tris[3,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-(trimethylsilyloxy)phenyl]boroxin intermediate.
