Aerobic oxidative α-arylation of furans with boronic acids via Pd(<scp>ii</scp>)-catalyzed C–C bond cleavage of primary furfuryl alcohols: sustainable access to arylfurans
Aerobic oxidative α-arylation of furans with boronic acids via Pd(II)-catalyzed C–Cbondcleavage of primary furfuryl alcohol provides sustainable access to arylfurans. This α-arylation protocol opens a new avenue for the transformation of readily available furans into other useful compounds.
