Kumada-Tamao-Corriu reactions, aryl

The reaction of aryl electrophiles with organomagnesium compounds is known as Kumada or Kumada-Tamao-Corriu reaction. The most common leaving groups in the electrophile are halogen atoms and, among them, chlorine is the most wanted due to the good availability and the low price of aryl or heteroaryl chlorides. Unfortunately, the oxidative addition of a metal center to an aryl chloride is a difficult reaction and many efforts have been made to overcome existing limitations.

The nickel-catalyzed reaction of Grignard reagent with an aryl halide, widely known as Corriu-Kumada-Tamao (CKT), constituted the first example of efficient cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides. However, the elassical protocol was not properly optimized and recent improvements have been achieved using NHC-Ni complexes. 

After Kumada and Tamao and Corriu independently reported the nickel(II) salts-and complexes-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of Grignard reagents with aryl and alkenyl halides, the Pd-catalyzed reaction of Grignard reagents was first reported by Murahashi. ... 

A cross-coupling arylation procedure was developed independently in 1972 by Tamao and Kumada in Japan and Corriu in France and is known as the Tamao-Kumada-Corriu cross-rxtupling reaction...
