Abstract
The bromine-lithium exchange in bromophenothiazines followed by transmetalation with trimethyl borate and addition of palladium catalyst, 1.2 equivalents of a base, and an aryl halide yields the cross-coupling products in moderate to very good yields.
Key words
borylations - cross-coupling - heterocycles - metalation - oligomers - one-pot reactions
