Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reaction of Alkyltrifluorosilanes with Aryl Halides

A cross-coupling reaction of alkyltrifluorosilanes with aryl halides was achieved using a catalytic amount of tetrakis-(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) and excess of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) at 100°C with high chemoselectitvity. Functional groups like nitro, ketone carbonyl, and formyl tolerated the coupling conditions. Because potassium(18-crown-6) alkyltetrafluorosilicates also underwent a cross-coupling reaction in the presence of an additional molar amount of TBAF, the active species of the coupling reaction was assumed to be pentacoordinate silicates. TBAF in excess was considered to be required for trapping the tetrafluorosilane produced in the catalytic cycle of the cross-coupling reaction.
