Ambiphilic cross-coupling with aryl-bismuth reagents

Cross-coupling reactions traditionally permit the formation of Ar-Ar bonds between an aryl nucleophile and an aryl electrophile under transition metal catalysis1,2. The high selectivity of the myriad of couplings known to date relies on a tailored combination of nucleophilic and electrophilic coupling partners, enabled by the mechanistic distinction between nucleophiles and electrophiles, which undergo fundamentally…
