Significance

A novel method for cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions between aryl chlorides or bromides and aromatic magnesium or lithium reagents is reported by Duan and co-workers. The presence of 40 mol% of Ti(OEt)4 suppresses undesired homocoupling side-products resulting from the organometallic reagent.

Comment

Interestingly, the reaction can also take place in the presence of a free carboxylic acid, a hydroxyl, or an amide residue. Therefore, this protocol allows an efficient arylation of highly functionalized aryl halides without protection–deprotection sequences.
