Highly Regio‐ and Stereoselective Ni‐Catalyzed Hydrocyanation of 1,3‐Enynes

Authors:

Abstract
A highly regio‐ and stereoselective hydrocyanation of 1,3‐enynes was implemented by nickel/diphosphine catalysts. A wide range of highly regio‐ and stereoselective alkenyl nitriles were efficiently prepared. In this transformation, both the tethered alkene and the ligand play key roles in the reactivity and selectivity. The origin of regioselectivity was understood preliminarily by DFT studies.
