A nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling of aziridines and allylic chlorides was realized by using manganese metal as the reducing agent. This protocol afforded a convenient approach to obtain β-allyl-substituted arylethylamines bearing various functional groups. The utility of this reaction was also demonstrated by scale-up preparation and diverse transformations, including the synthesis of Baclofen and several bioactive molecular motifs.
