60. In each experiment we confirmed that the reaction does not proceed in the absence of the cobalt catalyst. All the products were contaminated with about 10% of the corresponding dehydrobromination products.
61. Reactions in Table 4 conducted in the absence of the cobalt catalyst afforded less than 5% of the benzylated products. To our surprise, primary alkyl iodide was quantitatively converted into the corresponding benzylated product in the absence of the cobalt catalyst even at -20°C.
