Ketones Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction

The one-pot Barbier-type addition of alkenyl, aryl, allyl, vinyl, propargyl, alkynyl, or allenylchromium compounds to aldehydes or ketones is known as the Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi (NHK) reaction. An excellent review by Furstner published in 1999 detailed the exhaustive literature on the carbon-carbon bond formations involving organochromium(III) reagents. This chapter will present major developments and examples of recent carbon-carbon bond formation methodology and improvements as well as their use in natural products synthesis since 1999.
