Participants

Reaction Steps

Following the general procedure using cinnamyloxybenzene (53 mg, 0.25 mmol), 4-chlorophenylboronic acid (58 mg, 0.38 mmol) and PdCl2(D-t-BPF) (0.015 mmol, 9.8 mg), the reaction was stirred for 20 h at rt. Column chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 3% EtOAc/hexanes) afforded the product as a colorless liquid (43 mg, 75%).
