[Reaction: see text]. Aryl and alkenyl tosylates are easily prepared, inexpensive and, thus, attractive for transition-metal-catalyzed couplings, but their reactivity is low. We report examples of mild, palladium-catalyzed coupling of aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl Grignard reagents with aryl and alkenyl
