In this work, for the first time, we introduce potassium iodide as a green, inexpensive, and widely available nucleophilic catalyst for the successful synthesis of an ionic vinyl compound. FT‐IR, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), C, H, N elemental analysis and mass spectroscopy were used for the product characterization. The reaction mechanism investigated experimentally employing the UV‐vis method and theoretically at the M06‐2x/6‐31+G(d,p)‐dgdzvp levels of theory. Pure water and step 5 ‐ in which vinylic bond appears ‐ were kinetically recognized as the best solvent and R.D.S, respectively.
