Direct formation of secondary and tertiary alkylzinc bromides
Hanson, Mark V.
The direct formation of secondary and tertiary alkylzinc bromides can be accomplished under mild conditions from the direct oxidative addition of Rieke zinc to secondary and tertiary alkyl bromides including remote functionalized halides.
Direct formation of secondary and tertiary alkylzinc bromides and subsequent Cu(I)-mediated couplings
Rieke, Reuben D. Hanson, Mark V. Brown, Jeffrey D. Niu, Q. Jason
Secondary and tertiary alkylzinc bromides can be generated from the direct oxidative addition of Rieke zinc to secondary and tertiary alkyl bromides in high yield. These organozinc reagents have been found to undergo copper-catalyzed conjugate addition, cross-coupling with acid chlorides, and carbocupration to activated alkynes.
