Organozinc compounds alkenylzinc coupling

Organozinc compounds are also useful in palladium-catalyzed coupling with aryl and alkenyl halides. Procedures for arylzinc,156 alkenylzinc,157 and alkylzinc158 reagents have been developed. The ferrocenyldiphosphine dppf has been found to be an especially good Pd ligand for these reactions.159...
