Iron-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of <i>Bis</i>-(aryl)manganese Nucleophiles with Alkenyl Halides: Optimization and Mechanistic Investigations

Various substituted <i>bis</i>-(aryl)manganese species were prepared from aryl bromides by one-pot insertion of magnesium turnings in the presence of LiCl and in situ trans-metalation with MnCl<sub>2</sub> in THF at &#8722;5 &#176;C within 2 h. These <i>bis</...
