55. A notable exception are the aryl(2-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl)dimethylsilanes developed by Hiyama and co-workers, which could be successfully reacted with a broad range of aryl iodides in the presence of potassium carbonate and copper iodide to furnish biaryl derivatives without the need for fluoride activators.

However, the use of aryl bromides in such reactions is much less common; the development of a protocol that allows the coupling of a wide range of aryl bromides under mild fluoride-free conditions with a masked silanol(ate)would be of value as bromo derivatives are more readily available and typically easier to synthesise than their iodo counterparts

62. In a DoE, the ranges of the factors to be investigated (defining the covered experimental space) should be sufficiently wide so as to ensure that the optimum is residing within the experimental space studied, but not so large that experiments become impractical (e.g., an extremely long reaction time) or indeed, that the overall process yields optimised values for a given reaction component that are undesirable (e.g., a very large catalyst loading).
