The addition of NaBr, KBr, or LiBr <strong>in</strong>stead of tetrabutylammonium salts<br />

appeared to be the least effective for the <strong>reaction</strong> (Table 5.4, entries 8-10). It was<br />

noticed that Bu4NBr underwent decomposition to yield Bu3N <strong>in</strong> the course of Suzuki<br />

<strong>reaction</strong>s possibly via Hofmann elim<strong>in</strong>ation. However, the presence of a Bu3N<br />

secondary product seems to have no effect on the <strong>reaction</strong> process (compare entries 10,<br />
