23. 2O, and KF) gave poor results: reaction of 1 with 2a gave 3 in 55% yield with only 6% es.
24. Preliminary screening indicated that protodeborylation of 1 was slower in toluene than in 1,4-dioxane.

32. Larger scale reaction of 9a (317 mg, 1.0 mmol) with 2a (205 mg, 1.2 mmol) was also successfully achieved under the optimized conditions to give 10a in 80% yield (225 mg) with 97% es.
33. Water (2 equiv) was used in all reactions according to our previous study (ref 6), in which addition of water was crucial in gaining coupling product in high yields. We eventually found that water had no critical effect on the yield or es in the present coupling system.

45. 3 (1 equiv) in toluene at 110 °C for 6 h were as follows: 1 (86% es), 5 (94% es), and 9a (96% es). On the other hand, we confirmed that no racemization of the coupling products, diarylmethanamines, took place under the coupling conditions reported.
