The nickel-catalyzed electroreductive conjugate addition of (Z)- or (E)-alkenyl halides to electron-deficient olefins in the presence of a sacrificial iron rod as the anode proceeds with complete retention of the stereochemistry of the alkenyl part and affords functionalized isomerically pure (Z)- or (E)-olefins in high yield.
