Organozinc Reagents; General Procedure Zn powder was treated with 1 M HCl for 10 min, washed with acetone and then dried under vacuum before use. A mixture of Zn powder (3.0 mmol) and TMSCl (0.5 mL) in THF (10 mL) was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere at r.t. for 20 min, and then heated to 55-65 °C (Table [1] ). Alkyl or aryl halide (3, 2.0 mmol) in anhyd THF (2 mL) was added dropwise, and the reaction was maintained at this temperature for 10-24 h. The resulting solution was cooled to r.t., and the clear liquid could be directly used for the following reaction.
Negishi Cross-Coupling Reaction of Organozinc Reagents with 4-Tosylphosphacoumarins General Procedure A mixture of 4-tosylphosphacoumarin (1) (1.0 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (0.05 mmol), PPh3 (0.05 mmol) and the organozinc reagent prepared above in anhyd THF (10 mL) was heated to 55 °C under a nitrogen atmosphere. After 2-8 h, the reaction mixture was cooled to r.t. After the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, H2O (10 mL) was added to the residue, the solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 5 mL), and the combined organic phase was dried over anhyd Na2SO4. After removal of the solvent, the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (PE-EtOAc, 2:1) to give product 2.
