Chemical equations presented. An efficient Fe(III)-catalyzed direct coupling of alkenes with alcohols and cross-coupling of alcohols with alcohols to give the corresponding substituted (E)-alkenes stereospecifically is demonstrated. Additionally, this reaction could be scaled up. The kinetic isotope effect (KIE) experiments indicated a typical secondary isotope effect in this process. Although benzylic alcohols were effective substrates, mild conditions, atom efficiency, environmental soundness, and stereospecificity are features that make this procedure very attractive.
