Transition metal hydride catalyzed functionalization of remote and proximal olefins has many advantages over conventional cross-coupling reactions. It avoids the separate, prior generation stoichiometric amounts organometallic reagents use preformed reagents, which are sometimes hard to access may compromise functional group compatibility. The migratory insertion complexes generated in situ into readily available alkene starting materials, hydrometalation process, provides an attractive straightforward route alkyl intermediates, can undergo a variety sequential In particular, with synergistic combination chain-walking chemistry nickel, NiH-catalyzed undergone particularly intense development past few years. This Account aims chronicle progress made this arena terms activation modes, diverse functionalizations, chemo-, regio-, enantioselectivity.We first provide brief introduction general reaction mechanisms.

We also demonstrate functionalization, including C-C bond-forming reactions more challenging C-N/C-S could be realized. Moreover, employment appropriate chiral ligands successfully realize corresponding asymmetric hydrofunctionalization olefins, hydroalkylation, hydroarylation, hydroalkenylation, hydroalkynylation, hydroamination. Interestingly, enantio-determining step enantioselective hydronickelation, selective oxidative addition, reductive elimination.

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 143(35), С. 14089 - 14096

Опубликована: Авг. 26, 2021

A nickel-catalyzed, multicomponent regio- and enantioselective coupling via sequential hydroformylation carbonylation from readily available starting materials has been developed. This modular hydrofunctionalization strategy enables the straightforward reductive hydrocarbonylation of a broad range unactivated alkenes to produce wide variety unsymmetrical dialkyl ketones bearing functionalized α-stereocenter, including enantioenriched chiral α-aryl α-amino ketones. It uses bisoxazoline as ligand, silane reductant, chloroformate safe CO source, racemic secondary benzyl chloride or an N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) ester protected acid alkylation reagent. The benign nature this process renders method suitable for late-stage functionalization complex molecules.

Опубликована: Сен. 8, 2021

A NiH-catalyzed thioether-directed cyclometalation strategy is developed to enable remote methylene C–H bond amidation of unactivated alkenes. Due the preference for five-membered nickelacycle formation, chain-walking isomerization initiated by NiH insertion an alkene can be terminated at γ-methylene site from moiety. By employing 2,9-dibutyl-1,10-phenanthroline (L4) as ligand and dioxazolones reagent, occurs γ-C(sp3)–H bonds afford amide products in up 90% yield (>40 examples) with remarkable regioselectivity (up 24:1 rr).

ACS Catalysis, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 11(21), С. 13567 - 13574

Опубликована: Окт. 25, 2021

The enantio- and stereoselective synthesis of stereodefined alkenes, especially the functionalized Z-isomer with an allylic stereogenic center, remains a great challenge. We herein report enantioselective benzylic C(sp3)–H alkenylation simple alkylarenes vinyl bromides via photoinduced nickel catalysis, which allows for stereodivergent both enantioenriched Z- E-alkenes bearing aryl-substituted, tertiary centers. Interestingly, tunable Z/E-selectivity is achieved by energy transfer catalysis judicious choice photocatalyst counteranion. This versatile strategy features starting materials, mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, divergent E-selectivity, high enantioselectivities. Moreover, formal asymmetric alkylation can also be one-pot alkenylation/reduction sequence, providing complementary to address notoriously challenging stereochemical control in C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond construction.
