1,2-Dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes has emerged as an efficient synthetic strategy for preparing substituted molecules by coupling readily available with electrophiles and/or nucleophiles. Nickel complexes serve effective catalysts owing to their tendency undergo facile oxidative addition and slow β-hydride elimination, capability access both two-electron radical pathways. Two-component alkene functionalization reactions have achieved high chemo-, regio-, stereoselectivities tethering one the partners substrate. Three-component reactions, however, often incorporate directing groups control selectivity. Only a few examples directing-group-free difunctionalizations unactivated been reported. Therefore, great opportunities exist development three-component difunctionalization broad substrate scopes tunable stereoselectivities.
