title: New developments in aromatic halogenation, borylation, and cyanation.
abstract: Several green procedures have been developed for synthesizing functionalized aromatics: i) AuCl(3)-catalyzed halogenation of aromatic compounds, including aryl boronates; ii) Fe(2)O(3)-catalyzed direct aromatic C-H bond borylation; iii) Pd-catalyzed  direct cyanation of indoles; iv) direct conversion of arylamines to pinacol boronates.
