Research article (journal)First reports on asymmetric cross-coupling reactions of racemic activated and non-activated secondary alkyl halides highlight the particular suitability of nickel catalysts for these reactions. Impressively high enantioselectivities were observed for Negishi, Hiyama, and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions (see scheme). The results can be expected to change retrosynthetic thinking.
