Iron-Mediated Dialkylation of Alkenylarenes with Benzyl Bromides
We disclose a method for the dibenzylation of alkenylarenes with benzyl bromides using iron powder. This reaction generates branched alkyl scaffolds adorned with functionalized aryl rings through the formation of two new C(sp3)–C(sp3) bonds at the vicinal carbons of alkenes. This protocol tolerates electron-rich, electron-neutral, and electron-poor benzyl bromides and alkenylarenes. Mechanistic studies suggest the formation of benzylic radical intermediates as a result of single-electron transfer from the iron, which is intercepted by alkenylarenes.
