Precise stereocontrol of functionalized alkenes represents a long-standing research topic in organic synthesis. Nevertheless, the development catalytic, easily tunable synthetic approach for stereodivergent synthesis both E-selective and even more challenging Z-selective highly substituted 1,3-dienes from common substrates remains underexploited. Here, we report photoredox nickel dual catalytic strategy sulfonylalkenylation terminal alkynes with vinyl triflates sodium sulfinates under mild conditions. With judicious choice simple catalyst ligand, this method enables efficient divergent access to Z- E-sulfonyl-1,3-dienes same set starting materials. This features broad substrate scope, good functional compatibility, excellent chemo-, regio-, stereoselectivity. Experimental DFT mechanistic studies offer insights into observed stereoselectivity controlled by ligands.

However, developing multicomponent enantioselective reaction feedstock alkynes to forge all-carbon quaternary stereocenters─while addressing challenges related compatibility, selectivity, and efficiency─remains relatively rare. Here we report electrochemical nickel-catalyzed three-component cross-coupling readily available terminal alkynes, diverse racemic alkyl precursors, group transfer reagents (such as (TMS)3Si-H, RSe-SeR, RTe-TeR, CHI3), achieving excellent regio-, stereo-, enantioselectivities (more than 70 examples, up 95% ee). Electricity-mediated difunctionalizations significantly expand the scope both aliphatic aromatic demonstrating functional compatibility. key success lies in rational design anodically generated nickel-bound tertiary intermediates, which stereoselectively capture form vinyl radicals participate subsequently processes enable intermolecular anti-stereoselective difunctionalization alkynes.
