Answer
Answer (as printed): A
Explanation
Suzuki coupling — Palladium catalyzed cross coupling between organoboranic acid and halides. Heck coupling — Palladium catalyzed C-C coupling between aryl halides or vinyl halides and activated alkenes in the presence of a base. Sonogashira coupling — This coupling terminal alkynes with aryl or vinyl halides is performed with a palladium catalyst, Cu(I) cocatalyst and amine base. Negishi coupling — This reaction is the organic reaction of an organohalide with an organic-zinc compound Pd and Ni catalyst.
