Developments are reported in the catalytic synthesis of biaryls containing an ortho-carbaldehyde or 6H-dibenzopyrans in the presence of palladium/norbornene as catalyst. The reaction of o-substituted aryl iodides and o-bromobenzyl alcohols proceeds by unsymmetrical aryl-aryl coupling to form a seven-membered oxapalladacycle intermediate, which may undergo an intramolecular redox process to form carbonyl groups or a C-O coupling to six-membered cyclic ethers. The predominant formation of di-benzopyrans as well as of biaryl structures containing the oxidized CHO group in one ring and the reduced CH2OH in the other is described along with some mechanistic insights.

cross-coupling reactions under aerobic conditions. Various biaryls, terphenyls, and heterocyclic biphenyls were obtained in good to excellent yields. The ligands were also capable of catalyzing the Heck–Mizoroki reaction. As an application, the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction was used in the synthesis of incrustoporin, its analogs, and the drug molecule preclamol.
