Although the use of catalytic rather than stoichiometric amounts of metal mediator in cross-coupling reactions between organic halides and organometallic counterparts improves significantly the atom economy and waste production, the use of solvents and stoichiometric generation of main-group byproducts (B, Sn and Zn) hamper the 'greenness' and industrial efficiency of these processes. Here we present a highly selective and green Pd-catalysed cross-coupling between organic halides and organolithi ...[more]
