Synergistic catalysis, a type of plural catalysis which utilizes at least two different catalysts to
enable a reaction between two separately activated substrates, has unlocked a plethora of …

Nickel has emerged as a desirable substitute for palladium in Sonogashira coupling
reactions due to its abundance, less toxicity and high catalytic activity. Ni complexes have …

Continued development of the Sonogashira coupling has made it a well established and
versatile reaction for the straightforward formation of C–C bonds, forging the carbon …

Herein, we described a nickel-catalyzed monofluoroalkenylation through defluorinative
reductive cross-coupling of gem-difluoroalkenes with alkyl halides. Key to the success of this …

Despite the success of Sonogashira coupling for the synthesis of arylalkynes and
conjugated enynes, the engagement of unactivated alkyl halides in such reactions remains …

Alkyl groups are one of the most widely used groups in organic synthesis. Here, aa series of
thianthrenium salts have been synthesized that act as reliable alkylation reagents and …

Here we show a practical iron-catalysed photoredox approach for C (sp3)–H alkynylation of
methane, ethane, and other light alkanes without pre-functionalisation processes, producing …

Cyclization of propargylic alcohols with CO2 is an important reaction in industry, and noble‐
metal catalysts are often employed to ensure the high product yields under environmentally …

The nickel-catalyzed direct borylation and silylation of phenolic esters has been established.
The key to this highly efficient acyl C–O bond borylative and silylative cleavage depends on …

A new method for the synthesis of terminal and internal alkynes from the nickel‐catalyzed
decarboxylative coupling of N‐hydroxyphthalimide esters and bromoalkynes is presented …
