Stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes is a long-standing challenge in organic chemistry, due to the small energy differences between E and Z isomers of trisubstituted alkenes (compared with 1,2-disubstituted alkenes). Transition metal-catalyzed isomerization of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes can serve as an alternative approach to trisubstituted alkenes, but it remains underdeveloped owing to issues relating to reaction efficiency and stereoselectivity. Here we show that a novel cobalt catalyst can overcome these challenges to provide an efficient and stereoselective access to a broad range of trisubstituted alkenes. This protocol is compatible with both mono- and dienes and exhibits a good functional group tolerance and scalability. Moreover, it has proven to be a useful tool to construct organic luminophores and a deuterated trisubstituted alkene. A preliminary study of the mechanism suggests that a cobalt-hydride pathway is involved in the reaction. The high stereoselectivity of the reaction is attributed to both a π-πstacking effect and the steric hindrance between substrate and catalyst.

Stereoselective preparation of trisubstituted olefins can be easily performed from an Z/E-mixture of enol phosphates by reacting only the E-isomer with a Grignard reagent in the presence of Fe(acac)3. This procedure combines a kinetic differentiation and a stereoselective reaction. The coupling is very chemoselective in the presence of an alkyl chloride, an ester, a ketone or a nitrile.

Convenient Synthesis of Diene-Zirconocenes and Regioselective Partial Reduction of the More Highly Substituted Double Bonds of Conjugated Dienes via Complexation with Zirconocenes and Protonolysis

Conjugated dienes can be initially converted to their zirconocene complexes most conveniently by their reaction with (C5H5)2ZrCl2 and freshly ground Mg; the resultant complexes can then be protonolysed with 3 mol dm-3 HCl to give regioselectively monoenes corresponding to partial hydrogenation of the more highly substituted double bond.
