Abstract
Herein, decarboxylative C(sp3)-Sb coupling of aliphatic carboxylic acid derivatives with chlorostibines to access alkylstibines has been achieved. This catalyst-, ligand-, and base-free approach using zinc as a reductant affords various kinds of benzyldiarylstibines and other monoalkyldiarylstibines and tolerates various functional groups, including chlorine, bromine, hydroxyl, amide, sulfone, and cyano groups. The late-stage modification and the gram-scale experiments illustrate its potential application.

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric cross-coupling represents a powerful strategy for C-C bond formation and the synthesis of enantiomerically pure molecules. Here, we report a dual nickel/photoredox-catalyzed enantioselective reductive cross-coupling of aryl halides with α-bromobenzoates, readily generated from aliphatic aldehydes, to provide diverse chiral secondary benzylic alcohols that are important motifs in bioactive natural products and pharmaceuticals. This dual catalytic system features mild conditions, good functional group tolerance, broad substrate scope, excellent enantiocontrol, and avoidance of stoichiometric metal reductants, presenting great potential for late-stage functionalization of complex molecules.
