When ethylene and alkynes such as 4-octyne and diphenylacetylene were treated with Cp2ZrBu2 highly pair selective coupling products were formed in high yields. Similarly, styrene or trimethylvinylsilane also afforded cross coupling products with alkynes on zirconocene complex.
                                    当
乙烯和
炔烃(如 
4-辛炔和二
苯乙炔)用 Cp2ZrBu2 处理时,会以高产率形成高度配对选择性的偶联产物。类似地,
苯乙烯或三甲基
乙烯基硅烷也提供了与二茂
锆络合物上的
炔烃的交叉偶联产物。
