Advances in nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions have expanded the chemical space
of accessible structures and enabled new synthetic disconnections. The unique properties of …

This paper reviewed the recent research progress of organic reactions catalyzed by four
typical earth-abundant and 3d metal catalysts: Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni complexes and mainly …

Computational chemistry provides a versatile toolbox for studying mechanistic details of
catalytic reactions and holds promise to deliver practical strategies to enable the rational in …

Metal-catalyzed cross-couplings represent one of the most important reaction platforms in
modern synthetic chemistry (Figure 1 A). 1 Although the field enjoys a rich history, there …

Conspectus Metal carbene plays a vital role in modern organic synthesis. The neutral
divalent carbon of metal carbene renders it an active intermediate throughout a range of …

As an advance in hydrofunctionalization, we herein report that alcohols add to 1, 3-dienes
with high regio-and enantioselectivity. Using Ni-DuPhos, we access enantioenriched allylic …

A Ni‐catalyzed hydroarylation of styrenes and 1, 3‐dienes with organoboron compounds
has been developed. The reaction offers a highly selective approach to diarylalkanes and …

Potassium fluoride (KF) is an ideal reagent for fluorination because it is safe, easy to handle
and low-cost. However, poor solubility in organic solvents coupled with limited strategies to …

The first example of the oxidative addition of a C (sp3)–F bond in trifluoromethylarenes to a
nickel (0) complex is described. A nickel (0) complex that bears two N-heterocyclic carbene …

We report a catalytic method for the direct deoxygenation of various C–O bond-containing
functional groups. Using a Ni (II) pre-catalyst and silane reducing agent, alcohols, epoxides …
