Main-group organometallics are useful intermediates for the chemoselective and diastereoselective C-C bond formation. The boron-zinc exchange is a unique way for preparing chiral secondary alkylzinc reagents which are configurationally stable over a wide temperature scale. Coupled with the thermal rearrangement of tertiary organoboranes, a broad range of open-chain and cyclic polyfunctional molecules have been prepared. In addition, several examples of a diastereoselective remote C-H activation have been studied. The second part shows that the main-group metallic alkoxides such as t-BuOK can be used for the performance of catalytic reactions such as a new indole synthesis.
