Organometallic Compounds An organic compound containing a carbon–metal bond Organolithium compounds and organomagnesium compounds are two of the most common organometallic compounds
Alkyl halides, vinyl halides, and aryl halides can all be used to form organolithium and organomagnesium compounds However, these organometallic compounds cannot be prepared from compounds containing acidic groups (OH, NH2, NHR, SH, C=CH, CO2H)
Coupling Reactions Preparation of the Gilman reagent: Example of carbon–carbon formation using the Gilman reaction:
Gilman reagents can be used to prepare compounds that cannot be prepared by using nucleophilic substitution reactions:
Gilman reagents can replace halogens in compounds containing other functional groups:
Mechanism of the Suzuki Coupling Reaction Oxidative addition: Pd (0) to Pd (II):
Transmetallation: • Reductive elimination:
Mechanism of the Heck Coupling Reaction Oxidative addition: Pd (0) to Pd (II):
complex complex Complex formation: Insertion:
Trans stereochemistry Undergoes oxidative addition to bromobenzene Elimination: Regeneration of the catalyst:
