In their Hot Article, Solà, Stahl, Ribas and co-workers shed mechanistic light on the pharmaceutically important Cu-catalyzed Ullmann–Goldberg-type crosscoupling chemistry. Until now, fundamental knowledge of the mechanism of these reactions was still lacking. Find out more in this Dalton Transactions paper.
