Abstract

A nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling is disclosed in which a range of vinyl bromides were utilized as electrophiles with oxalates derived from α-hydroxy carbonyls as precursors to carbonyl radical coupling partners. This method is compatible with a broad range of functional groups, providing a complementary solution for the construction of β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.
