TY - JOUR A1 - Schmidt, Bernd A1 - Riemer, Martin A1 - Karras, Manfred T1 - 2,2 '-Biphenols via protecting group-free thermal or microwave-accelerated suzuki-miyaura coupling in water T2 - The journal of organic chemistry N2 - User-friendly protocols for the protecting group-free synthesis of 2,2'-biphenols via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of o-halophenols and o-boronophenol are presented. The reactions proceed in water in the presence of simple additives such as K2CO3, KOH, KF, or TBAF and with commercially available Pd/C as precatalyst. Expensive or laboriously synthesized ligands or other additives are not required. In the case of bromophenols, efficient rate acceleration and short reaction times were accomplished by microwave irradiation.
