In recent decades, late-transition-metal-mediated crosscoupling reactions have become one of the most important tools to create CÀC bonds in organic synthesis.[1] Significant efforts have been devoted to developing catalytic systems, to expand the scope of useful substrates in these couplings. A significant goal is to develop systems that do not require aryl iodide or bromide, which represent the most common electrophilic moieties in Pd-catalyzed ...
