Abstract

Abstract Image

The development of an NHC-based system capable of cross-coupling sp3−sp3 centers in high yield has been a long-standing challenge. This communication describes the use of a Pd−NHC catalytic system that achieves room-temperature Negishi cross-couplings of unactivated, primary bromides and alkyl organozinc reagents with a variety of functionality.
