Synthesis of diarylmethanes by means of Negishi cross-coupling enabled by cobalt-solvent coordination

Negishi cross-coupling published in Sci. Rep.

Our newest paper entitled Synthesis of diarylmethanes by means of Negishi cross-coupling enabled by cobalt-solvent coordination has been published online by Springer Nature.
It descibes the use of cobalt(II) bromide as a precatalyst for the Negishi cross-coupling of benzylzinc bromides with organyl bromides and iodides.
The work is available at doi: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-025-10180-1.
