Abstract
The complex [Cp*RuCl(PPh3)2] displays a high catalytic activity for
the Heck-type alkenylation of alkyl bromides, in the first example using this metal
under thermal conditions. The coupling reaction proceeds efficiently with a
variety of functionalized tertiary, secondary, and primary alkyl bromides. The
presence of Hünig’s base has been revealed crucial for this transformation. Preliminary
mechanistic studies support the participation of alkyl radicals in the
reaction.
