The coupling of benzimidazole 1 with arylboronate, boroxine, and boronic acids is accelerated efficiently by the addition of an optimal amount of water. This coupling reaction proceeds in nearly quantitative yield at 30 °C under an atmosphere of air within 24 hours. Under these conditions, the reaction tolerates both electron‐donating and electron‐withdrawing substituents at the ortho ‐, meta , or para ‐positions of the phenylboronic acid.
