title: Pd(0)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of 1,1-Diboronates with 2,2'-Dibromobiphenyls: Synthesis of 9H-Fluorenes.
abstract: An efficient and mild synthesis of 9H-fluorene derivatives through a Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of 1,1-diboronates with 2,2'-dibromobiphenyls has been developed. This reaction features high yields, operational simplicity, and mild reaction conditions, thus providing an excellent alternative to published methods for 9H-fluorene synthesis.
