title: Base and Cation Effects on the Suzuki Cross-Coupling of Bulky Arylboronic Acid with Halopyridines: Synthesis of Pyridylphenols.
abstract: Strong base and large size cation have been shown to accelerate the rate and the yield of Suzuki coupling of a sterically bulky boronic acid with halopyridines in DME for the synthesis of pyridylphenols.
