Abstract:Significance: Alkyl-or arylzinc halides are believed to be incompatible with the presence of acidic protons like free OH or NH 2 groups. However, in many cases the rate of their protonation allows performing the Negishi cross-coupling even in the presence of such acidic groups. The organozinc compounds are readily available directly from the corresponding halides. This method allows a simple one-pot reaction leading to a new C-C bond formation.Comment: The rate of the protonation of organozinc species decrease… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
