For 10 points, name this palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction between alkyl halides and alkenes, named for an American chemist.
It's not the Claisen rearrangement, but Overmann and Watson reported the ability of this reaction to diastereoselectively create contiguous quaternary carbon centers. A variant of this reaction that uses diazonium salts is named for Matsuda. A version of this reaction in which the reactants are refluxed with acetic acid is named for Fujiwara and Moritani. It is performed it on ethylene and a naphthalene derivative to synthesize naproxen. A variant of it in which one reactant has an OH group creates furan rings and is called an oxy-arylation. Another variation of this reaction immobilizes the catalyst and BMIM-F6 in silica gel; that variation of this reaction allows it to be performed without a (*) phosphorous-containing ligand and uses an ionic liquid. This reaction's catalyst is regenerated to its zero oxidation state using potassium carbonate in the final reductive elimination step, and like the Wacker process this reaction lacks a transmetallation step. One American namesake of this reaction won the 2010 Nobel Prize with two Japanese chemists.
