Abstract

We disclose a Ni-catalyzed vicinal alkylarylation of unactivated alkenes in γ,δ-alkenylketimines with aryl halides and alkylzinc reagents. The reaction produces γ-C(sp³)-branched δ-arylketones with the construction of two C(sp³)-C(sp³) and C(sp³)-C(sp²) bonds. Electron-deficient alkenes play crucial dual roles as ligands to stabilize reaction intermediates and to increase catalytic rates for the formation of C(sp³)-C(sp³) bonds. This alkene alkylarylation reaction is also effective for secondary alkylzinc reagents and internal alkenes and proceeds with a complete regio- and stereocontrol, affording products with up to three contiguous all-carbon all-cis secondary stereocenters.
