The Mizoroki-Heck coupling reaction serves as one of the most fundamental and powerful palladium-catalyzed organic transformations, which enables the precise and efficient construction of carbon-carbon bonds in complex molecular systems. Benefiting from its excellent substrate compatibility, remarkable functional-group tolerance and reliable reaction efficiency, this reaction has evolved into an indispensable synthetic tool in the field of natural product total synthesis and is widely adopted for the structural modification and skeleton assembly of various complex natural molecules. This article systematically reviews the cutting-edge research progress of Mizoroki-Heck coupling reactions from 2021 to early 2026. Relevant studies are classified into intermolecular and intramolecular Heck reactions according to distinct reaction modes, and we comprehensively summarize their practical applications and unique technical advantages in the total synthesis of a variety of mainstream natural product families, including alkaloids, terpenoids, aromatic compounds, and polyketides. As a robust synthetic strategy, the Mizoroki-Heck reaction is capable of realizing efficient fragment coupling and sophisticated polycyclic skeleton construction, which effectively addresses the core structural assembly challenges encountered in the synthesis of complex natural products. In such synthetic applications, intramolecular Heck reactions are more frequently utilized than intermolecular ones. Nevertheless, precise regulation of regioselectivity and effective stereochemical control remain the central research focuses and major technical challenges restricting the further development of this reaction. Furthermore, the rational combination of traditional Heck coupling with asymmetric catalysis, reductive Heck reactions, carbonylative modification, and cascade reaction strategies can significantly streamline synthetic routes, improve stereoselective control, and greatly enhance the overall step economy of synthetic sequences. In recent years, the continuous integration of Heck reactions with innovative catalytic systems and advanced synthetic methodologies has further broadened its application scope, providing solid support for the efficient preparation of structurally complex, biologically active natural products, synthetic process optimization, and the sustainable development of novel drug research and development.
