The formation of such bonds is important in organic chemistry, and various transition metal catalysed cross-coupling reactions have been investigated before, however this new method achieves excellent yields, is easily recyclable and easy to use.
This work is part of the authors research into organochalcogen derivatives for biological and asymmetric transformations.
