Abstract
Cross-coupling reactions to form biaryls and π bond addition reactions to prepare substituted carbonyls or alcohols represent two of the most frequently performed families of chemical reactions. Recent progress in catalysis has uncovered substantial overlap between these two seemingly distinct topics. In particular, esters, aldehydes, and alcohols have been shown to act as carbon-based coupling partners in a range of Ni- and Pd-catalyzed reactions to prepare amides, ketones, substituted alcohols, alkanes, and more. These reactions provide promising alternatives to commonly used stoichiometric or multi-step reaction sequences. In this feature article, a selection of these transformations will be discussed with an emphasis on the key mechanistic steps that allow these non-traditional substrates to be incorporated into cross-coupling-like catalytic cycles.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
