We report the Cu(II) catalyzed synthesis of β‐disubstituted ketones from styrene via oxo‐alkylation with unactivated cycloalkanes as the alkylating agent in presence of tert‐butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) and 1‐methylimidazole as oxidant and base respectively. β‐disubstituted ketones are known to be synthesized by using either expensive Ru/Ir complexes, or low‐cost metal complexes (e. g. Fe, Mn) with activated species like aldehyde, acid, alcohol, or phthalimide derivatives as the alkylating agent, however, use of unactivated cycloalkanes directly as the alkylating agent remains challenging. A wide range of aliphatic C−H substrates as well as various olefinic arenes and heteroarene (35 substrates including 14 new substrates) are well‐tolerated in this method. Hammett analysis shed more light on the substitution effect in the olefinic part on the overall mechanism. Furthermore, the controlled experiments, kinetic isotope effect study, and theoretical calculations (DFT) enable us to gain deeper insight of mechanistic intricacies of this new simple and atom‐economic methodology.
