Nickel-catalyzed regioselective electrocarboxylation of allylic halides with CO2at atmospheric pressure has been developed by adjusting reaction parameters, including catalyst, solvent, temperature and additive. β,γ-Unsaturated carboxylic acids were obtained in moderate to good yields and with high chain selectivity. This reaction shows tolerance to functional groups. In addition, cyclic voltammetry was performed to provide the possible mechanism of nickel-catalyzed CO2allylation.

The catalytic transfer hydrogenation reactions of a series of aromatic and aliphatic carbonyl compounds were investigated using divalent Ni(II)-diphosphine complexes, [L2NiCl2] (where L2 = 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm), 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe), 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp), 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf), and N-butyl-N-(diphenylphosphino)-1,1-diphenylphosphinamine (dppba)). This is a single-step reaction in the presence of potassium hydroxide and isopropyl alcohol to afford the corresponding alcohols. This protocol tolerates other sensitive functional groups like olefinic double bonds and also achieves high chemoselectivity. All the reactions were monitored by GC and GC–MS. The plausible mechanism is also discussed. The method reported in the present article is simple, cost-effective, and provides excellent conversions. Nickel-diphosphine complexes appear as a potential alternative to expensive transition metal complexes.

The objective of this study was the design of a scaleable process for the synthesis of 3-4 mol of α-terthienyl from 2,5-dibromothiophene and thienylmagnesium bromide in a 10-L stirred tank reactor. In THF the Grignard reagent, thienylmagnesium bromide, was readily formed from 2-bromothiophene and magnesium. To avoid crystallization the maximal concentration was limited to 1.4 M. Furthermore, the novel combination of THF and NiCl2[bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene] allows for fast double coupling of the Grignard reagent with 2,5-dibromothiophene. The concentration of catalyst could be limited to 0.5 mol % based on the amount of 2,5-dibromothiophene. An adapted workup procedure was developed, in which n-octane was used to separate the magnesium salts from the desired product. The reaction was performed in a (semi)batch-wise operated reactor. A global model for the coupling step proved to predict the results at 0.1-, 1-, and 10-L scales very accurately. The heat of reaction evolved in the coupling step was valorized and could be handled easily. Mixing of the feed stream and the reactor content proved to be another important factor in the scaling-up of the α-terthienyl synthesis.
