The chemoselective functionalization of a range of dihaloaromatics with methyl, cyclopropyl, and higher alkyl Grignard reagents via iron-catalyzed cross-coupling is described. The site selectivity of C-X (X = halogen) activation is determined by factors such as the position of the halogen on the ring, the solvent, and the nucleophile. A one-pot protocol for the chemoselective synthesis of mixed dialkyl heterocycles is achieved solely employing iron catalysis.
