β-Alkoxy- and β-hydroxyalkyl radicals generated by sodium borohydride reduction of oxymercurials react with electron deficient olefins to give addition compounds in a homogeneous process.Heterogeneous reactions are also successful in the presence of catalytic amounts of surfactants and provide a superior method for the "one pot" reductive alkylation of oxymercurials.
