Conditions for the fast Ni‐catalyzed Kumada‐type cross‐coupling of functionalized benzyl and allyl chlorides with alkylmagnesium reagents were discovered. The use of Ni(acac) 2 –TMEDA (acac = acetylacetonate, TMEDA = N , N , N′ , N′ ‐tetramethyl‐1,2‐ethylenediamine) allows the presence of reactive functional groups on the electrophile. On the other hand, the use of diallyl ether was shown to provide fast coupling at low temperature with a low catalyst loading. The reaction seems to follow a radical pathway.
