Ni made it! A novel Heck-type reaction of secondary and tertiary α-carbonyl alkyl bromides, most likely involving a radical process, was achieved through the use of a nickel catalyst. Various substituted styrenes and 1,1-diaryl alkenes were utilized as substrates to easily construct α-alkenyl carbonyl compounds with tertiary or quaternary carbon centers. A catalytic cycle involving NiI/NiII is proposed based on our experimental results. EWG=electron-withdrawing group.
