Until today, the transition metal-catalyzed transformations continue to find great attention from the chemical community. As Negishi picted out in his Nobel lecture, the goal of organic chemists in the 21st century is the synthesis of every imaginable compound to seek for new structures that could possibly solve mankind’s problems in the near or far future.2 1 Overview Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions between unsaturated halides and organometallics have found broad applications. Cross-coupling reactions using boronic acids or esters, known as Suzuki cross- coupling reactions,3 have been extensively used due to the broad availability and relative air- and moisture-stability of unsaturated boronic acid derivatives.4 Nevertheless, the fast transmetalation of organozinc reagents to palladium compared to boronic acids often allows the achievement Negishi cross-couplings2 between a broad range of unsaturated halides and zinc organometallics under very mild conditions (Scheme 1).
