Nickel-Catalyzed Kumada Coupling of Boc-Activated Aromatic Amines via Nondirected Selective Aryl C-N Bond Cleavage

A nickel-catalyzed Kumada coupling of aniline derivatives was developed by selective cleavage of aryl C-N bonds under mild reaction conditions. Without preinstallation of an ortho directing group on anilines, the cross-coupling reactions of Boc-protected aromatic amines with aryl Grignard reagents afforded unsymmetric biaryls. Mechanistic studies by DFT calculations revealed that the nickel-mediated C-N bond cleavage is the rate-limiting step.

Methylation of Arenols through Ni-catalyzed C—O Activation with Methyl Magnesium Bromide

Direct alkylation of arenols with alkyl organometallic reagents has never been approached. Herein we reported the first successful example of nickel-catalyzed methylation of arenols with methyl Grignard reagents to construct C(sp2)-C(sp3/

Nickel-Catalyzed Borylation of Aryl and Benzyl 2-Pyridyl Ethers: A Method for Converting a Robust ortho-Directing Group

The nickel-catalyzed borylation of aryl 2-pyridyl ethers via the loss of a 2-pyridyloxy group is described. This method allows a 2-pyridyloxy group to be used as a convertible directing group in C?H bond functionalization reactions. The nickel catalyst can also borylate arylmethyl 2-pyridyl ethers, in which the stereochemistry at the benzylic position is retained in the case of chiral secondary benzylic substrates.
