Bimetallic lithium aluminates and neutral aluminum counterparts are compared as catalysts in hydroboration reactions with aldehydes, ketones, imines and alkynes. Possessing Li–Al cooperativity, ate catalysts are found to be generally superior. Catalytic a

A catalytic enantioselective method for the formation of alkyne-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers is reported. Additions of alkynylaluminums to alkyl-, aryl-, carboxylic ester-, or silyl-substituted allylic phosphates are promoted by 1.0-5.0 mol % loadings of NHC-Cu complexes derived from air-stable and commercially available CuCl2· 2H2O. The requisite Al-based reagents are prepared through treatment of the corresponding aryl-, heteroaryl-, alkyl-, or alkenyl-substituted terminal alkynes with diisobutylaluminum hydride in the presence of 5.0 mol % Et 3N at ambient temperature. The desired 1,4-enynes are obtained in up to 98% yield and >99:1 enantiomeric ratio. Selected Au-catalyzed cyclizations involving the alkyne unit of the enantiomerically enriched products are presented as a demonstration of the methods utility in chemical synthesis.
α-Selective Ni-catalyzed hydroalumination of aryl- and alkyl-substituted terminal alkynes: Practical syntheses of internal vinyl aluminums, halides, or boronates

A method for Ni-catalyzed hydroalumination of terminal alkynes, leading to the formation of α-vinylaluminum isomers efficiently (>98% conv in 2-12 h) and with high selectivity (95% to >98% α), is described. Catalytic α-selective hydroalumination reactions proceed in the presence of a reagent (diisobutylaluminum hydride; dibal-H) and 3.0 mol % metal complex (Ni(dppp)Cl2) that are commercially available and inexpensive. Under the same conditions, but with Ni(PPh3)2Cl2, hydroalumination becomes highly β-selective, and, unlike uncatalyzed transformations with dibal-H, generates little or no alkynylaluminum byproducts. All hydrometalation reactions are reliable, operationally simple, and practical and afford an assortment of vinylaluminums that are otherwise not easily accessible. The derived α-vinyl halides and boronates can be synthesized through direct treatment with the appropriate electrophiles [e.g., Br 2 and methoxy(pinacolato)boron, respectively]. Ni-catalyzed hydroaluminations can be performed with as little as 0.1 mol % catalyst and on gram scale with equally high efficiency and selectivity.
