ABSTRACT
Background Boronic acids and boronate esters are the most commonly used derivatives in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions. Recently, Molander et al.[1] and our group [2] have explored the use of potassium organotriuoroborate salts as an alternative to the usual organoboron reagents in alkenyl-alkenyl,[3] aryl-aryl,[4] alkenyl-alkynyl,[5] and alkenyl-aryl [6] cross-coupling reactions.
