• species. The crossover reaction can be described as the combination of the disproportionation of the allyl dimer and the comproportionation of Cp with IPr-Pd(0) (Scheme 7b). From these results, we conclude that the comproportionation reaction to form CpDim is more exergonic than in the allyl case (|ΔG

• . The radical-polar crossover reaction [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] of arenediazonium salts, developed in our group since 1993, also features aryl radical intermediates and is a more recent addition to these reactions. It involves a novel splicing of radical and polar reactions in one pot
