Abstract

Transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions allowing the formation of C–C bonds, 1 particularly in the formation of biaryl structural motifs, underlie the synthesis of key intermediates from natural products synthesis 2 to supramolecular chemistry. 3 Classically, most approaches require the use of an organometallic reagent (such as organoboron, organomagnesium, organostannane or organozinc reagents) in conjunction with an organic halide or pseudo halide. The ...
