Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of nonbenzylic α-(acylamino)alkylboron compounds with aryl halides is established. A Pd/PCy2 Ph catalyst promotes the reaction efficiently at 145 °C. The reaction of enantioenriched α-(acylamino)alkylboron compounds affords chiral 1-arylalkylamides in high enantiospecificity and inversion of configuration.
