But palladium is expensive and also toxic. For more than two decades now chemists have been investigating the ability of iron to serve as a catalyst in cross coupling reactions and in some respect they have been very successful. But still iron remains less flexible and less reliable as a cross-coupling agent.<\/p>\n<p>Read more:<\/p>\n<p>Iron-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions<\/p>\n<p>A. F?rstner, A. Leitner, M.
