Efficient difunctionalization of alkenes allows the rapid construction of molecular complexity from simple building blocks in organic synthesis. We present herein a nickel-catalyzed dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes using readily available organoboronic acids and organic halides in a three-component fashion. In particular, an unprecedented regioselectivity of the 1,3-dicarbofunctionalization of N-allylpyrimidin-2-amine is achieved when aryl and methyl iodides are utilized. In contrast, the use of alkyl bromides with β-hydrogens results in 1,3-hydroarylation or oxidative 1,3-diarylation. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest an isomerization involving nickel hydride in the 1,3-difunctionalization reactions. On the other hand, the use of alkenyl or alkynyl halides promotes alternative regioselectivities to deliver 1,2-alkenylcarbonation or intriguing 2,1-alkynylcarbonation products. Such 2,1-alkynylarylation is also applicable to N-allylbenzamide as a different class of substrates. Overall, this nickel-catalyzed process proves to be powerful in delivering versatile difunctionalized compounds using readily available reagents/catalysts and a simple procedure.

A novel, environmentally friendly procedure has been developed for the preparation of secondary or tertiary amines by one-pot reductive amination of carbonyl compounds using sodium borohydride in the presence of a magnetically recoverable sulfonic acid supported on hydroxyapatite-encapsulated-γ- Fe2O3 [γ-Fe2O3@HAP-SO 3H] at room temperature. The catalyst was easily separated from the reaction mixture by applying an external magnet and reused for six cycles without significant loss of catalytic activity.
