A new biaryl phosphine-containing platform can be constructed in only two steps and this complexes Pd(OAc)<sub>2</sub> forming a precursor of a very active catalyst useful for Suzuki–Miyaura cross-couplings of functionalized substrates.

EvanPhos: a ligand for ppm level Pd-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura couplings in either organic solvent or water
