A Convenient Method for the Preparation of Fluorous Tin Derivatives for the Fluorous Labeling Strategy

A convenient method for the preparation of fluorous aryl stannanes was developed as a means of expanding the general utility of the fluorous labeling strategy (FLS). Following the synthesis of a novel fluorous distannane, a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction was used to prepare the target compounds from aryl halides. The scope of the reaction was investigated by preparing a small library of model compounds where the reaction yields …
