Abstract

An efficient and facile copper(II) acetylacetonate catalyzed synthesis of functionalized bis(arylmethyl)zinc reagents from arylmethyl halides and their olefination reaction with aromatic aldehydes is reported. Aluminum trichloride was found to be the key ingredient in these reactions and (E)-stilbenes were obtained in high yields.

Key words

aldehyde - zinc - nucleophilic addition - olefination - benzylation
