Preparations<br />
Alkylzinc iodides (R<strong>Zn</strong>I)<br />
• Primary and secondary alkylzinc iodides (R<strong>Zn</strong>I) are best<br />
prepared by direct insertion of zinc metal (zinc dust activated by<br />
1,2-dibromoethane or chlorotrimethylsilane) into alkyl iodides or<br />
by treating alkyl iodides with Rieke zinc. The zinc insertion can<br />
tolorate a lot of functional groups, allowing preparation of<br />
polyfunctional organozinc reagents.
