title: A simple and efficient procedure of low valent iron- or copper-mediated Reformatsky reaction of aldehydes.
abstract: An operationally simple and very efficient procedure of Reformatsky reaction of aldehydes has been carried out in THF in the presence of low valent iron or copper which were prepared in situ employing a bimetal redox strategy through reduction of FeCl3 or CuCl2-2H2O with magnesium.
