Over the last decade, bimetallic catalysis has emerged as a very attractive approach to promote C–C bond forming reactions. The mechanism proposed for these bimetallic systems involves two different catalytic cycles (each with one transition-metal (TM) catalyst) connected by a transmetalation step, however no detailed experimental mechanistic study on this step has been carried out.<br/>In this context, detailed understanding of catalytic transformations is key of designing better catalysts. Thus, our goal is to investigate the transmetalation between well-defined transition metal complexes in order to provide key information about the feasibility of these transformations.
