Cross coupling of non-activated alkyl halides is a potentially transformative methodology in organic synthesis. Herein we review the recent development of nickel-catalyzed coupling of non-activated alkyl halides. The current understanding of the mechanism of these coupling reactions is highlighted. As the mechanism is ligand-dependant, the perspective is organized according to the types of ligands employed in the catalysis.
