Abstract

Six triethylammonium tetra-arylborates (TEATABs) were synthesized via a convenient reproducible procedure and characterized by spectroscopic methods (1H, 13C, 11B NMR and electrospray ionization–high-resolution mass spectrometry). The compounds could be stored at ambient temperature and were useful as reactants in the Suzuki reaction in aqueous conditions when using commercially available catalysts.

Notes

a Isolated yield after recrystallization. No attempts was made to find the best recrystallization solvents.

b Preparation started from commercially available Ph4BNa, and only cation exchange was used.

a Reaction conditions: tetra-arylborate (0.27 mmol), 4-iodonitrobenzene (1 mmol), Pd(OAc)2 (1 mol%), Na2CO3 (1 mmol), and solvent (5.3 ml).

b 10 mol% of catalyst was used.

a Reaction conditions: TEATAB 1 (0.068 mmol), 4-bromobenzoic acid (0.25 mmol), base (0.5 mmol), and solvent (1 ml).

b Same results were also obtained when 5 mol% catalyst was used.

a Reaction conditions: tetra-arylborate (0.068 mmol), 4-bromobenzoic acid (0.25 mmol), base (0.5 mmol), and EtOH/H2O (1 ml).

a Reaction conditions: TEATAB (0.18 mmol), 4-bromobenzoic acid (0.60 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (0.030 mmol, 5 mol%), Na2CO3(aq) (1.19 mmol), and EtOH/H2O (1:1) (0.5 ml) at 85 °C, 2 h.

b Reaction time was 18 h.

c NMR analysis indicated that traces of desired compound were formed as well as many side products. Isolation was not attempted.

d After 48 h, the product was not observed.
