1. Oxidative addition of an organic halide to Pd(0) to form Pd(Il).
2. Transmetalation between Pd(Il) and the organotin reagent.
3. Reductive elimination to form the C-C sigma bond and regeneration
of the catalyst.

and organomagnesium or organolithium reagents.

1. Initially, the electron-rich Pd(0) catalyst inserts into the R-X bond of the
organic halide. This oxidative addition forms an organo-Pd(II}-complex.
2. Subsequent transmetalation with the Grignard or the organolithium
reagent forms a hetero-organometallic complex.
3. Before the next step, isomerization is necessary to bring the organic
ligands next to each other into cis positions.
4. Finally, reductive elimination leads to the formation of a C-C bond and
releases the cross coupled product while regenerating the Pd(0) catalyst.

1. Oxidative addition of an organic halide to Pd(0) to form Pail).
2. Pd forms a TT complex with the alkene.
3. Migratory insertion: the alkene inserts in the Pd—C bond in a syn
addition step.
3. B-hydride elimination leads to the m complex.
4. Decoordination of the complex followed by reductive elimination
to regenerate the catalyst.
