We disclose a Ni-catalyzed vicinal alkylarylation of unactivated alkenes in γ,δ-alkenylketimines with aryl halides and alkylzinc reagents. The reaction produces γ-C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-branched δ-arylketones with the construction of two new C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-C(sp<sup>3</sup>) and C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-C(sp<sup>2</sup>) bonds. Electron-deficient alkenes play crucial dual roles as ligands to stabilize reaction intermediates and to increase catalytic rates for the formation of C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-C(sp<sup>3< ...[more]
