A method for the reductive cross-coupling of conjugated arylalkenes and aryl bromides with hydrosilanes by cooperative palladium/copper catalysis was developed, thus resulting in the highly regioselective formation of various 1,1-diarylalkanes, including a biologically active molecule. Under the applied reaction conditions, high levels of functional-group tolerance were observed, and the reductive cross-coupling of internal alkynes with aryl bromides afforded trisubstituted alkenes.
