The '''Heck reaction''' (also called the '''Mizoroki–Heck reaction''')<ref>{{cite journal | last=Drahl|first=Carmen | title=In Names, History And Legacy | journal=[[Chem. Eng.

It is named after [[Tsutomu Mizoroki]] and [[Richard F. Heck]]. Heck was awarded the 2010 [[Nobel Prize in Chemistry]], which he shared with [[Ei-ichi Negishi]] and [[Akira Suzuki (chemist)|Akira Suzuki]], for the discovery and development of this reaction. This reaction was the first example of a carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction that followed a Pd(0)/Pd(II) catalytic cycle, the same catalytic cycle that is seen in other Pd(0)-catalyzed [[cross-coupling reaction]]s. The Heck reaction is a way to substitute alkenes.<ref>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1002/0471264180.or027.02 | title = Palladium-catalyzed vinylation of organic halides | author = Heck, R.
