Homo- and cross-coupling involving alkenyl halides have been performed efficiently using an electroassisted nickel-complex catalysis. Valuable product such as conjugated dienes, beta,gamma- or gamma,delta-unsaturated esters, ketones, or nitriles, as well as alkenylated aryl compounds are thus prepared with high yields and high stereoselectivity. Partial isomerization is only observed in a few cases, when the alkenyl halide is involved in a late step of the catalytic cycle. This is the case in the preparation of (Z,Z)-1,3-diene.

Regioselective formylation or acylation of isoprene at the C1 atom was realized by reaction of Cp2Zr(isoprene) with saturated esters followed by protonolysis with acetic acid. The corresponding reaction with various alkyl acrylates resulted in the formation of allyl vinyl ketones.
