This document summarizes key information about organozinc compounds:
1. Organozinc compounds contain carbon-zinc bonds and were among the first organometallic compounds synthesized.
2. They are less reactive than other organometallic reagents like Grignard and organolithium compounds.
3. Organozinc compounds react through reactions like the Reformatsky reaction, Simmons-Smith reaction, Negishi coupling and Fukuyama coupling to form carbon-carbon bonds. They can also be used to introduce functional groups.
