Abstract
3-Thienylzinc bromide is prepared under mild conditions by electroredu ction of a DMF solution of 3-bromothiophene, zinc bromide, and a catal ytic amount of nickel-bipyridine complex, using a magnesium rod as sac rificial anode. The resulting organometallic is then coupled with aryl halides using a palladium catalysis. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier S cience Ltd.
