 | | Somewhat related to the well-known Suzuki cross-coupling reaction involving organoboron reagents, is the so-called Hiyama coupling of organosilanes with halides and triflates to form unsymmetrical biaryl compounds. |
 | | Seganish and DeShong from the University of Maryland have described rapid, microwave-promoted Hiyama couplings of bis(catechol) silicates with aryl bromides (Org. |
 | | The reaction could either be performed in a two-step protocol, by first performing a classical Sonogashira coupling on 2-amino-3-chloropyrazine, followed by base-induced cyclization (reaction a), or in a one-step method by reacting the corresponding sulfonamide, N-(3-chloropyrazin-2-yl)-methanesulfonamide, directly with terminal acetylenes in the presence of suitable palladium catalyst (3 mol%) (reaction b). |
