Advancing Air‐ and Moisture‐Compatible s‐Block Organometallic Chemistry Using Sustainable Solvents

Challenging conventional wisdom that s‐block organometallic reagents such as Grignard or organolithiums need to be used under protecting inert atmosphere (N 2 or Ar), employing dry organic solvents with a strict temperature control, this Minireview focusses on recent advances on the use of these commodity reagents while operating under air, at room temperature and in the presence of moisture. Key for the success of these approaches has been the...
