Stereoselective synthesis of zuclomiphene was developed using nickel-catalyzed addition of 4-fluorophenylmagnesium bromide to 1,2-diphenylacetylene, followed by quenching with a chlorinating reagent. Since the aryl fluoride addition and chlorination reactions occur consecutively in one pot, the cis orientation of the two phenyl groups of 1,2-diphenylacetylene is conserved, leading to the highly selective
