Abstract

We herein report the first visible-light-mediated cross-coupling of unactivated alkyl iodides with aryl bromides through synergistic nickel and halogen atom transfer (XAT) catalysis. This simple protocol operates under mild reaction conditions and tolerates variety of functional groups affording C(sp3)–C(sp2) cross-coupling products in good to moderate yields.
