Building Addressable Libraries: a Site-selective Allyl Alkylation Reaction
A Pd(0) catalyst has been used to effect allyl alkylation reactions at pre-selected locations on an addressable microelectrode array. The reactions provide a new approach to site-selective carbon–carbon bond formation and a new method for placing substrates on the surface of a microelectrode array.
