Abstract

A Giese reaction of aryl bromides with electron-deficient alkenes was developed, enabled by a dual catalyst system containing NiII complex and IrIII photocatalyst. This protocol could accommodate a variety of aryl bromides and electron-deficient alkenes, delivering the conjugate adducts in up to 97% yield. The utilization of photoexcited (dtbbpy)NiII(aryl)Br intermediate as an aryl radical source allows this novel transformation of aryl halides, thus expanding the chemical space of excited nickel catalysis.
