Abstract

The arylaluminum reagents are good nucleophiles for organic reactions because of their high reactivity, high chemoselective, low toxicity, and ease of preparation. Therefore, arylaluminum reagents are widely applied in many organic reactions. This review summarizes the recent advancement of the arylaluminum reagents applied in cross-coupling reactions, involving various reaction systems and properties of reaction.

Keywords: Arylaluminum reagents, C-C/N bond formation, cross-coupling reaction, electrophiles reagents, organic synthesis, research progress.
