Abstract

Abstract This letter reports the coupling reaction of Grignard reagents with 1, 1-dichloro-1- alkenes in the presence of the environmentally friendly iron (III) catalyst. This non-toxic procedure is general and provides the di-coupled products as the major compounds. The scope and limitations of this new reaction are described.
