Also known as: Kosugi-Migita-Stille coupling

Schematic of the Stille cross-coupling. Reagents: organohalide, organostannane, Palladium(0) catalyst, ligands. Product: coupled product. Comments: aryl, alkenyl, allyl, or acyl R groups.

The Stille cross-coupling reaction is the organic reaction of an organohalide with an organostannane com-pound to give the coupled product using a palladium catalyst. The mechanism begins with oxidative add-ition of the organohalide to the Pd(0) to form a Pd(II) complex.

Reductive elimination then gives the final coupled product, regenerates the palladium catalyst, and the catalytic cycle can begin again. [1][2]
