Organic synthesis plays a leading role in the discovery of small molecules for the exploration of biological systems. Therefore, the development of efficient strategies for the preparation


of these molecules is a necessary aspect of the small-molecule approach to chemical biology.


In the version of this article initially published, the palladium catalyst was incorrectly drawn as PdPh4. The molecular formula is actually Pd(PPh3)4. The error has been corrected in the


HTML and PDF versions of the article.
