Conditions for the palladium-catalyzed direct arylation of a wide range of heterocycles with aryl bromides are reported. Those conditions employ a stoichiometric ratio of both coupling partners, as well as a substoichiometric quantity of pivalic acid, which results in significantly faster reactions. An evaluation of the influence of the nature of the aryl halide has also been carried out.
