Abstract
2-Arylpyridines are an important class of ligands for the synthesis of complexes with physical properties. We observed that the use of 3-, 4- or 5-bromo-2-chloropyridines allows the synthesis of a wide variety of heteroarylated 2-arylpyridines by means of successive direct arylation and Suzuki coupling. For these two reactions, an air-stable catalyst associated to a cheap and nontoxic base was employed as the catalyst. Moreover, a wide range of heteroarenes and functionalised arylboronic acids could be tolerated.
