Nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling between functionalized primary or secondary alkylzinc halides and primary alkyl halides

TLDR
In the presence of Bu(4)NI (3 equiv) and 4-fluorostyrene (20 mol %), unreactive primary and secondary alkylzinc iodides undergo nickel-catalyzed cross-couplings with various primaryAlkyl iodides or bromides allowing the synthesis of aminated products.
Abstract
In the presence of Bu4NI (3 equiv) and 4-fluorostyrene (20 mol %), unreactive primary and secondary alkylzinc iodides undergo nickel-catalyzed cross-couplings with various primary alkyl iodides or bromides. More reactive secondary dialkylzincs and the mixed zinc organometallics RZnTMSM undergo the cross-coupling reaction in the absence of Bu4NI. The bicyclic secondary diorganozinc 6 prepared via boron−zinc exchange reacts with high retention of configuration. Free NH-groups are tolerated in the cross-coupling allowing the synthesis of aminated products.

Nickel and palladium complex catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of organometallic reagents with organic halides

TL;DR: The discovery in 1972 by two research groups that dihalodiphosphinenickel(II) complexes exhibit extremely high catalytic activity for selective cross-coupling of Grignard reagents with sp2-carbon halides has aroused wide-spread interest in application in organic synthesis of this type and related reactions involving other organometallics than Grignards and not only nickel but also palladium complexes as catalysts as mentioned in this paper.
