As a straightforward strategy for rapidly increasing molecular complexity, dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes has attracted substantial interests organic synthesis, medicine chemistry, and materials science. Nickel‐catalyzed cascade dicarbofunctionalizations have been flourished in this area recently, nickel‐mediated radical pathways particularly offer new opportunities conjunctive cross‐couplings with alkyl coupling partners. Herein, we give comprehensive review nickel‐catalyzed through historical perspective, including intermolecular three‐component reactions intramolecular reactions. Among the discussed review, carbometallation/cross‐coupling process addition/cross‐coupling are two major alkenes. The oxidative cyclization 1,2‐metallate shift processes also selectively discussed. These methods overcome limitations associated using noble metals field, providing an efficient access to structurally diversified molecules.

Published: June 24, 2021

Transition-metal-catalyzed dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes involving intramolecular Heck cyclization followed by intermolecular cross-coupling has emerged as a powerful engine for building heterocycles with sterically congested quaternary carbon centers. However, only exo-cyclization/cross-coupling products can be obtained; endo-selective cyclization/cross-coupling not been reported yet and still poses formidable challenge. We herein report the first example catalyst-controlled regiodivergent synthesis five- six-membered benzo-fused lactams bearing all-carbon Using chiral Pyrox- or Phox-type bidentate ligand, 5-exo cyclization/cross-couplings proceed favorably to produce indole-2-ones in good yields excellent regioselectivity enantioselectivities (up 98% ee). When C6-carboxylic acid-modified 2,2′-bipyridine was used 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2-ones were obtained through 6-endo-selective processes. This transformation is modular tolerant variety functional groups. The ligand rather than substrate structures precisely dictates pattern. Moreover, synthetic value this protocol demonstrated preparation biologically relevant molecules structural scaffolds.
