1. Experimental Section 1.1 General Methods

Gas chromatographic analyses were performed on a gas chromatograph with a flame

ionization detector, and equipped with the following columns: HP-1 25 m x 0.20 mm x 0.25 μm

column. 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 19F NMR were conducted on a High Resolution Spectrometer Bruker

Advance 400, in CDCl3 as solvent. Gas Chromatographic/Mass Spectrometer analysis were carried

out on a GC/MS QP 5050 spectrometer equipped with a VF-5ms, 30 m x 0.25 mm x 0.25 μm column.

Melting points were performed with an electrical instrument. The HRMS were recorded at the UCR

Mass Spectrometry Facility, University of California, USA. The Elemental Analyses were carried out on

an EXETER CE 440 at the UMYMFOR – FCEN, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The AsPh3, PPh3, (o-bph)PCy2, (o-bph)PtBu2, PCy3, n-Bu3SnCl, (PPh3)2PdCl2, Pd(OAc)2,

Pd(dba)2, CuI, RfI, ArB(OH)2, K3PO4, Cs2CO3, Ba(OH)2, NaOH, Na2SO4 and ArI were commercially

available and used as received. (2-bromophenyl)diphenylarsine (2) was prepared as previously

reported from the corresponding 2-bromoiodobenzene.1 CsF was dried under vacuum at 120°C. All

solvents were analytical grade and distillated before use. Toluene was distilled under nitrogen with Na-

benzophenone and dioxane was distilled under nitrogen. All reactions were carried out under

atmosphere of nitrogen. Silica gel (0.063-0.200 mm) was used in column chromatography.

1.2 General Procedure for the preparation of n-Bu3SnAsPh2. A typical procedure involves

the formation of Ph2As- ions from Ph3As and Na metal in liquid ammonia, followed by addition of n-

Bu3SnCl to obtain the n-Bu3SnAsPh2. Into a three-necked, 500 mL, round-bottomed flask equipped

with a cold finger condenser charged with dry ice-ethanol, a nitrogen inlet, and a magnetic stirrer,

approximately 400 mL of ammonia previously dried with Na metal under nitrogen was condensed.

AsPh3 (1.0 mmol) and then 2 equivalents of Na metal (2 mmol) in small pieces were added, with a

pause for bleaching between each addition. At 20-30 min of the last addition, Ph2As- anion was formed

(clear orange-red solution), and n-Bu3SnCl (1 mmol) was added slowly. The mixture was then stirred

for 5 min and the liquid ammonia allowed to evaporate. The evaporation left a white solid residue

which was dissolved in dry organic solvent (12 mL). Reagent 1 was formed in almost quantitative

yield. This stannane solution without purification was used for the cross-coupling Pd-catalyzed

arsinations.

1.3 Representative Procedure for Pd-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Suzuki-Miyaura Reaction. The following procedure of the reaction is representative of all cross-coupling Suzuki-

Miyaura reactions. Into a 25 mL Schlenk tube with Teflon screw-cap septum equipped with a magnetic

stirrer and a nitrogen inlet, Pd(OAc)2 (1 mol%, 0.01 mmol), PPh3 (Pd:L 1:4, 0.04 mmol) (2-

bromophenyl)diphenylarsine (2) (1 mmol), arylboronic acid (3a-g) (1.5 mmol), K3PO4 (2 mmol) were

added, and then dioxane (5 mL) and water (2.5 mL) were added. The reaction mixture was heated for

24 h in an oil bath at 100°C. The solvent condensation took place on the walls of Schlenk tube. After

being cooled to room temperature, the mixture was open to the air and diluted with water and then

extracted three times with CH2Cl2 (30 mL each). The biarylarsine product was purified in an open

atmosphere by silica-gel column chromatography after being dried with anhydrous Na2SO4. These

reactions were scaled up to 5 mmol of (2-bromophenyl)diphenylarsine (2) at most.

1.4 Representative Procedure for Pd-Catalyzed Arsination Reaction with n-Bu3SnAsPh2 and Perfluoroalkyl Iodides (RfI). The following procedure of the reaction of n-Bu3SnAsPh2 (1) with

perfluorooctyl iodide (4a) is representative of all these reactions. Into a three-necked, 500-mL, round-

bottomed flask equipped with a cold finger condenser charged with dry ice-ethanol, a nitrogen inlet,

and a magnetic stirrer, approximately 400 mL of ammonia previously dried with Na metal under

nitrogen was condensed. The AsPh3 (1.0 mmol) was added followed by 2 equivalents of Na metal (2

mmol) in small pieces, waiting for bleaching between each addition. After 20-30 min of the last

addition, Ph2As- anion was formed (clear orange-red solution), and n-Bu3SnCl (1 mmol) was added

slowly. The mixture was stirred for 5 min and the liquid ammonia was then allowed to evaporate.

Evaporation left a solid white residue which was dissolved in dry toluene (12 mL). This solution was

added via cannula and syringe into a Schlenk tube. In the tube, CsF (3 eq.) was previously dried

under vacuum at 120°C for 3 h; after cooling the tube at room temperature, (PPh3)2PdCl2 (10 mol%),

ligand (40 mol%), substrate 4a (0.7 mmol) and toluene (3 mL) were added. When the solution of

stannane 1 was added, the reaction mixture turned deep brown. The reaction mixture was heated for

24 h in an oil bath at reflux. Water was added to the cooled reaction mixture and then extracted three

times with CH2Cl2 (30 mL each). After being dried with anhydrous Na2SO4, product 5 was quantified by

CG using the internal standard method.

The products were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, GC-MS and HRMS. All these

spectroscopic data agreed with those previously reported for compounds L11 and 5-8.2
