The use of aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborate salts as coupling partners in the Suzuki鈥揗iyaura reaction was investigated from a process chemistry perspective including safety evaluation, solvent and catalyst screening and multivariate factor optimisation. Optimised conditions were applied to a range of substrates to evaluate the scope and limitations of the reaction, and one example was carried out on mole scale to demonstrate the practicality and scalability of the process.
