51. It has to be pointed out that many biaryls are solid at room temperature, thus the products can be easily separated in excellent purity by simple filtration, which could allow a VOCs-free process for this extremely useful coupling reaction.
52. 1H NMR analysis, and then was purified by flash chromatography (n-pentane-ethyl ether = 10:1) to yield 4-methoxybiphenyl (902 mg, 98%).
