A “one-shot” cross coupling between benzyl alcohols and alkenyl halides has been established. A combination of low-valent Ti-mediated C?OH homolysis and the prominent chemistry of Ni-based radical catalysis afforded the desired cross-coupled product with good efficiency. The reaction proceeded regardless of the electronic property of benzyl alcohols, and Ar?B bond remained intact throughout the reaction. Alkenyl bromides with various substitution patterns were applicable to this reaction. Attempts for utilizing sterically demanding tri-substituted alkenes indicated that the steric hinderance mainly inhibited the radical-trapping by Ni species. This reaction can be a simple and efficient strategy for synthesizing densely substituted allylbenzene derivatives. (Figure presented.).

Highly efficient and simple coupling reactions of benzylic bromides or chlorides with alkenylaluminum reagents catalyzed by NiCl2(PPh 3)2 are reported. The coupling reactions proceed effectively at room temperature employing low loading of catalyst, 0.5 mol% for benzylic bromides having either electron-donating or -withdrawing substituents on the aromatic ring, affording coupling products in excellent yields of up to 94% in short reaction times. The coupling reactions of benzylic chloride require 5 mol% of the catalyst and a longer reaction time of 2 h.
