Redox-Neutral Ni-Catalyzed sp3 C–H Alkylation of α-Olefins with Unactivated Alkyl Bromides

A light-induced redox-neutral Ni-catalyzed sp³ C–H alkylation of unactivated alkenes with alkyl bromides possessing β-hydrogens is described herein. The method is distinguished by its simplicity, wide scope, and exquisite regio- and chemoselectivity profile, thus offering an entry point to forge sp³–sp³ architectures.
