摘要:
Arylated naphthalenes were prepared by Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of methyl 4-bromo-3-(trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy)-2-naphthoate. The reactions proceeded with very good chemoselectivity in favor of the triflate group, due to additive electronic ortho electronic effects. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
