Increment of the amount of HI was efficient to increase the yield rather than to elongate the reaction time. This reaction could be applied to compounds bearing halogen and sulfur atoms, which would act as reductive site and poisoning of the transition-metal catalyst, respectively. The yield was decreased in the case of the compounds bearing small substituent such as propyl and butyl groups on olefin.
