title: N-vinylpyridinium and -ammonium tetrafluoroborate salts: new electrophilic coupling partners for Pd(0)-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reactions.
abstract: N-Vinylpyridinium and -trialkylammonium tetrafluoroborate salts represent a new class of electrophilic coupling partner for Pd(0)-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reactions and give very good to excellent yields of products with a wide range of boronic acids. The salts are easily prepared from activated acetylenes and pyridinium or trialkylammonium tetrafluoroborates to form crystalline, air-stable, and nonhygroscopic crystals. [reaction: see text].
