The Suzuki reaction is the palladium-catalysed addition of aryl, vinyl, or substituted vinyl groups to organic halides or triflates.
The mechanism involves the oxidative addition of the halide and a transmetallation with the boronate hydroxide and base which speeds up the reaction. The palladium(0) catalyst is then regenerated in the reductive elimination step to form the product.
