Abstract
An efficient Fe-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of vinyl halides with tertiary alkyl methyl oxalates provides vinylated carbon quaternary centers with excellent functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope. A cascade radical cyclization and vinylation affords complex bicyclic and spiral structural motifs.
