Palladium-catalysed synthesis of triaryl(heteroaryl)methanes
Molecules with 4 aryl groups attached to a central carbon atom have proven challenging to synthesize despite their attractiveness for a variety of applications. Here the authors report a Pd-catalysed arylation of di- and triarylmethanes, giving a high-yielding route to an array of tetraarylmethanes.
