53. Analogous lithiation/borylation procedures on 2-amino-5-bromopyridine and 1-amino-4-bromobenzene gave complex product mixtures; the corresponding boronic acid/ester derivatives could not be isolated.
54. The isolated yields of cross-coupled products from in situ trapping of ester 9 were lower (based on 7) than from reactions via the purified acid 8.
55. For example, o-cyanopyridylboronic esters are more suitable than the corresponding boronic acids: T. Cailly, F. Fabis, A. Bouillon, S. Lemaître, J. Sopkova, O. de Santos, S. Rault, Synlett 2006, 53-56.
