[reaction: see text]. The Suzuki-Miyaura-type cross-coupling of arylboron compounds with aryl halides proceeds efficiently in the presence of a rhodium-based catalyst system to produce the corresponding biaryls. Furthermore, it has unexpectedly been observed that the treatment with benzonitrile under similar
