One-pot synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical diarylmethanes via diborylmethane.
A one-pot synthesis of diarylmethanes from air-stable diborylmethane via the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction is described. The present approach realizes the synthesis of various symmetrical and unsymmetrical diarylmethanes in good to excellent yields.
