Abstract


This review summarizes the field of carbozincation of alkenes and alkynes. It includes uncatalysed-, catalyzed-, and promoted-addition of orgnozinc derivatives across the unsaturated bond in alkenes and alkynes. For each reaction, the scope and limitations are discussed with specific emphasis on mechanism and stereochemistry. Experimental conditions and procedures are also presented.
