Abstract

(Fluoroarene)tricarbonylchromium(0) complexes were found to undergo Suzuki and Stille cross-coupling reactions to form functionalised biaryl and styrene complexes in up to 87 and 52% yields, respectively. The Suzuki reactions were optimal with dipalladium tris(dibenzylideneacetone)–trimethylphosphine–caesium carbonate in DME at reflux. The Stille reactions were optimal with dipalladium tris(dibenzylideneacetone)–trimethylphosphine–caesium fluoride in DME at reflux and neither was adversely affected by a methoxy group on the complexed ring. The Suzuki reaction tolerated a chloro group on the arylboronic acid ring but not a bromo group.
