Abstract Nitrate esters hold pivotal roles in pharmaceuticals, energetic materials, and atmospheric processes, motivating the development of efficient synthesis routes. Here, we present a novel catalytic method for nitrates via direct O ‐nitration alcohols, addressing limitations current traditional methods. Leveraging bench‐stable recoverable N ,6‐dinitrosaccharin reagent, our strategy employs magnesium triflate to achieve mild selective offering broad substrate scope unprecedentedly large functional group tolerance (e.g. alkenes, alkynes, carbonyls). DFT mechanistic studies reveal dual role catalyst activation both nitrating reagent alcohol substrate. They also unveil barrierless proton transfer upon formation widely‐accepted – yet elusive solution nitrooxonium ion intermediate. Overall, work contributes mild, selective, sustainable approaches synthesis, with potential applications drug discovery, materials science, environmental chemistry.

The asymmetric cross-coupling of unsaturated bonds, hampered by their comparable polarity and reactivity, as well the scarcity efficient catalytic systems capable diastereo- enantiocontrol, presents a significant hurdle in organic synthesis. In this study, we introduce highly adaptable photochemical cobalt catalysis framework that facilitates chemo- stereoselective reductive cross-couplings between common aldehydes with broad array carbonyl iminyl compounds, including N-acylhydrazones, aryl ketones, aldehydes, α-keto esters. Our methodology hinges on synergistic mechanism driven photoredox-induced single-electron reduction subsequent radical–radical coupling, all precisely guided chiral catalyst. Various optically enriched β-amino alcohols unsymmetrical 1,2-diol derivatives (80 examples) have been synthesized good yields (up to 90% yield) high stereoselectivities >20:1 dr, 99% ee). Of particular note, approach accomplishes unattainable transformations disparate partners without reliance any external photosensitizer, thereby further emphasizing its versatility cost-efficiency.
