Abstract

The enantioselective palladium-catalyzed Heck arylation of olefins using arenediazonium salts is one of the last features in the evolution of a synthetic method known as the Heck-Matsuda reaction. This personal account highlights the development of the enantioselective Heck-Matsuda reaction in its initial stages, the challenges faced along the way, and the interesting findings that opened new synthetic opportunities, mainly from our laboratory, featuring the Heck-Matsuda reaction as a central player in the synthesis of bioactive and functional molecules.
