Sequential regio and chemoselective cross-coupling reactions by means of O6-tri-isopropylsulfonate of 4-bromo-pyridazine 3,6-dione

Regioselective desymmetrization of 4-substituted pyridazin-3,6-diones using sterically hindered 2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl-sulfonylchloride allowed efficient sequential palladium cross-coupling reactions.
