A procedure for Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling of ketone enolates with alkenyl halides has been developed. Intermolecular coupling of aromatic and aliphatic ketone lithium enolates with a variety of alkenyl halides is achieved in the presence of Ni(cod)2 catalyst (5 mol %), an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand, and LiI (10 mol %) at 6-22 °C for 0.5-12 h with yields of up to 90%. During the initial development of this reaction, a misleading result with respect to the actual active catalyst was obtained using commercially available Q-Phos ligand, which was found to contain a trace of Pd metal contaminant sufficient to catalyze the reaction. However, under the final conditions optimized for Ni(cod)2 in the presence of an NHC ligand, Pd was incompetent as a catalyst.

A protocol for a mild, catalytic, intermolecular alkenylation of ketone enolates has been developed using a Pd/Q-Phos catalyst. Efficient intermolecular coupling of a variety of ketones with alkenyl bromides was achieved with a slight excess of LiHMDS and temperatures down to 0 °C.
