A copper-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reaction of nonactivated alkyl tosylates and mesylates with alkyl and aryl bromides was developed. It provides a practical method for efficient and cost-effective construction of aryl-alkyl and alkyl-alkyl C=C bonds with stereocontrol from readily available substrates. When used in an intramolecular fashion, the reaction enables convenient access to various substituted carbo- or heterocycles, such as 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran and benzochromene derivatives.

No such thing as a problem substrate! In a reaction designed specifically for the title substrates C-C coupling with alkyl boranes occurred in good yield at room temperature with commercially available catalyst components (see scheme). This versatile method is also suitable for Suzuki reactions of secondary and primary alkyl bromides and iodides, as well as primary alkyl chlorides.
