Abstract

Organozinc reagents have been known for more than 150 years. 8 However, their applications in organic synthesis were limited to very specific reactions due to their moderate reactivity. These reagents were soon replaced by the more reactive organomagnesium and organolithium reagents which found broad applications in organic synthesis. However, it became clear that this high reactivity has some drawbacks, such as low chemoselectivity and only allowing R groups ...
