Abstract

Organozinc reagents are highly reactive yet functional group-tolerant carbon nucleophiles rendering them valuable in Reformatsky reactions, Negishi cross-couplings, Michael additions, and related transformations. However, at present the organozinc reagents are usually generated immediately before use (or even in situ), due to limited data on their stability. Such a situation is a serious obstacle for broader application of such compounds and their transfer into the category of commercially available reagents.
