PALLADIUM CATALYZED REACTION OF HEXABUTYLDITIN WITH ARYL BROMIDES: PREPARATION OF NEGATIVELY SUBSTITUTED ARYLTRIBUTYLTIN

Abstract

Reaction of hexabutylditin with aryl bromides in the presence of a catalytic amount of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium was found to be a promising tool to prepare aryltributyltins, particularly negatively substituted (–NO2, –COMe, –CN) phenyltin compounds.
