Mild and yet reactive halogen–zinc exchange reagents allow the preparation of various highly functionalized sensitive zinc organometallics. The interesting development of the halogen–zinc exchange reaction is explored, including the preparation and application of organofluorine zinc reagents. Also, extremely reactive dialkylzinc reagents complexed with lithium alkoxides are highlighted. For more information, see the Minireview article by M. Balkenhohl and P. Knochel on page 3688 ff.
