Build a lookup hash:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;
my $array_ref = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
my $array_of_hashes_ref = [
{key => 4, name => 'label4'},
{key => 2, name => 'label2'},
{key => 5, name => 'label5'},
{key => 1, name => 'label1'},
{key => 3, name => 'label3'}
];
my %lookup;
@lookup{map {$_->{key}} @$array_of_hashes_ref} = @$array_of_hashes_ref
+;
print "$lookup{$_}{key}, $lookup{$_}{name}\n" for @$array_ref;
Prints:
1, label1
2, label2
3, label3
4, label4
5, label5
