The palladium-catalysed cross-coupling of aryl- or alkenylboronates and aryl halides has proved phenomenally successful for the formation of Csp2–Csp2 bonds. Now, an alternative non-transition-metal-mediated coupling using similar reactants has been reported for the stereo-controlled formation of Csp2–Csp3 bonds.
