Trans-selective monoarylation of 1, 1-dibromo- and 1,1-dichloro-1-alkenes (1) can be achieved in > 80% yields and in > 98-99% stereo selectivity with arylzinc bromides in the presence of a catalytic amount of Cl2Pd(DPEphos) or Cl2Pd(dppb), the former permitting cleaner and higher yielding reactions. Although THF is a generally satisfactory solvent, ether and toluene are superior to THF in some cases. The second substitution of (Z)-alpha-bromostyrenes (3) with alkylzincs in the presence of 2 mol% of Pd('Bu3P)(2) proceeds to give the corresponding 2 in >90% yields and in greater than or equal to98-99% stereoselectivity. Although somewhat less satisfactory, the use of Cl2Pd(DPEphos) permits a one-pot tandem arylation-alkylation. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
