It's all in the mix: The magnesiation of iodoaryl and iodoheteroaryl boronic esters with iPrMgCl⋅LiCl leads to mixed bimetallic compounds, which react with a variety of electrophiles to provide highly functionalized boronic esters (see scheme). Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of the resulting boronic esters afford various polyfunctional aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds.
