Abstract

The coupling reaction of alkenyl electrophiles with organometallics has been strenuously developed because it is a powerful tool for the construction of p-conjugated carbon frameworks, which are very valuable as functional materials.[1] In general, alkenyl halides and pseudohalides are used as electrophilic coupling partners in the presence of a transitionmetal catalyst. The use of these electrophiles, however, has some drawbacks in ...
