Reaction of Diazonium Salts With Transition Metals. I. Arylation of Olefins With Arenediazonium Salts Catalyzed by Zero Valent Palladium

Abstract Various olefins, especially those bearing electron donating groups, were successfully arylated by arenediazonium salts in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium(O) complexes. An arylpalladium species was supposed to be an intermediate in this reaction.
