Low-valent nickel is shown to preferentially isomerize mono- or disubstituted epoxides into their corresponding aldehydes. Experiments with tetrasubstituted epoxides demonstrate that these reactions proceed via reactive 2-nickelaoxetane intermediates, and

An efficient one-pot route to synthesize tertiary alcohol compounds using Barbier-Grignard reaction of unactivated alkyl or aryl bromides with ester in THF at 65 C catalyzed by CuO has been developed and systematically investigated. A wide range of substituted tertiary alcohol compounds were obtained in good to high yields. The reaction is highly chemoselective. The mechanism involving the leaving group of R2O-group is discussed.

Rh(I)/diene-catalyzed addition reactions of arylboroxines/arylboronic acids with unactivated ketones to form tertiary alcohols in good to excellent yields are described. By using C2-symmetric (3aR,6aR)-3,6-diaryl-1,3a,4,6a- tetrahydropentalenes as ligands, the asymmetric version of such an addition reaction, with up to 68% ee, was also realized.
