is this mechanism feasible?
« on: January 16, 2006, 03:09:08 PM »
Hi,

I am wondering if my mechanism here is feasible.  I am not sure whether an sp2 hybridized carbon can act as a nucleophile, or whether a Gilman reagent can have a function group as is shown here.  Thanks.

Ryan

I don't know if a Gilman reagent is the best thing to use for an aromatic halide. But, the concept seems okay.
