Abstract: Siloxane methodology is extended to couplings with iodo- and bromoanilines, hindered arylbromides, and substituted siloxanes as substrates. Additionally, initial studies with 5-bromoindole and other heteroaromatics suggest that the siloxane-mediated cross coupling methodology will also be applicable in these systems.
