A generalised route for the synthesis of β-furyl-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes through Suzuki reactions

A general method for the synthesis of β-(2-furyl)-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes is described using the Suzuki coupling reaction of furan-2-boronic acids and β-bromo-α,β-unsaturated aldehyde derivatives.
