Soc.) by Knochel and Chen detailing the direct insertion of indium into aryl and heteroaryl iodides and the cross-coupling of the so-formed indium reagents with aryl halide to form biaryls.

33. Indium containing 0.1% Mg was prepared my mixing 102.6 mg of indium metal with 11.4 mg of commercially available indium containing 1% Mg (Aldrich).

35. Electron-deficient aryl bromides were also suitable partners for the cross-coupling reaction with the in situ formed arylindium reagents, furnishing biaryl products 3 in similar or slightly lower yields when compared to the corresponding aryl iodides. Electron-rich aryl bromides, however, gave very poor yields (5-20%) of cross-coupled products.

40. While the indium metal recovered after the insertion reaction (30% of the total used) could be directly reused in insertion and cross-coupling reactions with minimal (< 10%) decrease in yield, the indium metal recovered after zinc-mediated reduction of the residual aqueous indium salts (50-60% of the total used) was a softball-like clump that could not be reused directly because of its decreased surface area compared to indium powder. Work on preparing this material for reuse in insertion and cross-coupling reactions is currently in progress.
