Organogallium and ‐indium compounds are useful reagents in organic synthesis because of their moderate stability, efficient reactivity and high chemoselectivity. Carbogallation and ‐indation of a carbon‐carbon multiple bond achieves the simultaneous formation of carbon‐carbon and carbon‐metal bonds. Heterogallation and ‐indation construct carbon‐heteroatom and carbon‐metal bonds. Therefore, these reaction systems represent a significant synthetic method for organogalliums and ‐indiums. Many chemists have attempted to apply various types of unsaturated compounds such as alkynes, alkenes, and allenes to these reaction systems. This minireview provides an overview of carboindation and ‐gallation as well as heteroindation and ‐gallation.
