ALKYL-ALKENYL CROSS COUPLING VIA ALKYL COBALOXIME RADICAL CHEMISTRY. AN ALKYL EQUIVALENT TO THE HECK REACTION COMPATIBLE WITH COMMON ORGANIC FUNCTIONAL GROUPS

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)80043-X

A novel cobalt-mediated radical-olefin coupling reaction is described which regenerates the olefin functionality in the final product.The regeneration of olefin functionality is unique among radical-olefin couplings using simple activated alkenes.
