Substrate Scope^a,b

^a0.15 mmol scale, 1:2 = 1:2, 4:2 = 1:2, isolated yields.

^bDiastereomeric ratio (dr) and E/Z ratio was determined by ¹H NMR analysis of crude reaction mixtures, using CH₂Br₂ as an internal standard.

^cSingle diastereomer.

^dXantphos Pd G3 (10 mol %) was used as a catalyst, and 1 equiv of PhMe₂SiH was used. Xantphos Pd G3: [(4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene)-2-(2′-amino-1,1′-biphenyl)]palladium(II) methane-sulfonate.

^eReaction was performed at 40 °C without light.

^fStyrene was not added.
