While the use of visible light in conjunction with transition metal catalysis offers powerful opportunities to switch between on/-off states of catalytic activity, the next frontier would be the ability to switch the actual function of the catalyst and resulting products. Here we report such an example of multi-dimensional catalysis. Featuring an easily prepared, bench-stable cobalt(I) hydride complex in conjunction with pinacolborane, we can switch the reaction outcome between two widely employed transformations, olefin migration and hydroboration, with visible light as the trigger.

A highly reactive nickel catalyst comprising NiCl2(dppp) or NiCl2(dppe) with zinc powder, ZnI2 and Ph2PH, was applied in the isomerization of terminal alkenes to Z-2-alkenes. The double-bond geometry of the 2-alkene can be controlled via the reaction temperature to yield the 2-Z-alkenes in excellent yields and high Z-selectivities. The formation of other constitutional isomers, such as 3-alkenes, is suppressed on the basis of the proposed mechanism via a 1,2-hydride shift from the metal to the Ph2P ligand. The nickel-catalyzed isomerization reaction was then applied in the synthesis of (9Z,12Z)-tetradeca-9,12-dienyl acetate, a pheromone with a 2Z,5Z-diene subunit.
