The invention relates to a technique for preparing aromatic organozinc compounds and to a composition therefore. This composition constitutes a reactant that can be used to carry out the synthesis of organozinc compounds, and comprises a cobalt salt, a zinc salt, a polar aprotic solvent and elemental zinc in divided form, the elemental zinc being in solid form, the other elements being in a form dissolved in the solvent. Application to organic synthesis.

Preparation of aromatic organozinc compounds and composition therefore

A liquid conductive composition for electrolytic use, comprises a cobalt salt, a zinc salt, a polar aprotic solvent of said salts and a cobalt ligand. The liquid composition is used in a process for the preparation of an organozinc compound by electrolytic synthesis. The process comprises the step of subjecting to an electrolysis on an inert cathode the liquid composition comprising a cobalt salt, a zinc salt, a solvent, a cobalt ligand, and an organic halide, and recovering the organozinc obtained by the electrolysis.
