Cu III in focus : The key intermediate in copper‐mediated cross‐coupling reactions has long been believed to be a “copper(III) intermediate”. Investigation of reactions of a variety of methyl Gilman reagents Me 2 CuLi⋅LiX with EtI using rapid‐injection NMR spectroscopy conditions reveals a number of formally Cu III tetracoordinate square‐planar intermediates (see scheme) with a surprising range of stabilities.
