Happy Pi day! The current date and time (14 March, 1.59pm) resemble 3.14159, the approximation of the mathematical constant Pi, or π. Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The ratio stays the same no matter how big or small the circle is.

Now you can cross-couple two aryl halides by single metal.

This new method of cross-electrophile coupling exploited both the excited & ground state chemistry of palladium bypassing transmetalation.
