A detailed direct kinetic study has been carried out to compare the reaction rate of transferable group, Ph in mixed phenylzinc reagents, RPhZn (R = n‐alkyl) and in homo diphenylzinc reagent, Ph 2 Zn in their reactions with allyl bromide in THF at 25–(−15) °C. Empirical rata law and activation parameters are consistent with a second‐order substitution reaction . The allylation rate of transferable group Ph in RPhZn (R = n‐alkyl) has been found higher than the rate of Ph group in Ph 2 Zn. A mechanism which accommodates the kinetic data and higher allylation rate of transferable group Ph in RPhZn than that in Ph 2 Zn is given. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
