Selective reduction strategies based on abundant-metal catalysts are very important in the production of chemicals. In this paper, a method for the electrochemical semihydrogenation and semideuteration of alkynes to form Z-alkenes was developed, using a simple nickel foam as catalyst and H3O+ or D3O+ as sources of hydrogen or deuterium. Good yields and excellent stereoselectivities (Z/E up to 20 : 1) were obtained under very mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded with terminal and nonterminal alkynes, and also with alkynes containing easily reducible functional groups, such as carbonyl groups, as well as aryl chlorides, bromides, and even iodides. The nickel-foam electrocatalyst could be recycled up to 14 times without any change in its catalytic properties.

Heterogeneous chemoselective or stereoselective C-C coupling reactions remain extremely challenging in traditional organic synthesis. Here, we constructed a AuPd@N-rich carbon nitride (NRCN) photocatalyst through simple ammonia solution heat treatment of carbon nitride and then AuPd NP loading. AuPd@NRCN exhibited extraordinary light color promoted catalytic performance in C-C bond formation under visible light in air. Surprisingly, both high chemoselectivity to unsymmetrical Ullmann biaryl products and satisfactory stereoselectivity to Z-type Heck reaction products could be achieved by changing the light source color. Various substrates exhibited great potential for the economical synthesis of unsymmetrical biaryl products and Z-type olefins. Efficient visible light promoted C-I bond activation accompanied with improved photocatalytic coupling reaction efficiency over AuPd@NRCN was verified firstly by in situ DRIFTS. Considering that the Ullmann cross-coupling reaction is a multi-photon reaction, the improved photocatalytic performance in the Ullmann cross-coupling reaction using a combination of light sources with different colors might be due to the activation of different substrates and/or steps requiring different energies, and the combination of the two energy sources was beneficial for improving the activation efficiency of different substrates and/or steps. The activation of iodobenzene and styrene in the Heck reaction with light was also beneficial to the formation of the stilbene product. The light color promoted chemoselectivity and stereoselectivity are expected to have profound impact on organic synthetic methodology improvement. This journal is

Herein, the first example of visible-light-driven, cobalt-catalyzed transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes is reported. It is carried out by using Ir[dF(CF3)ppy]2(dtbbpy)]PF6 as photosensitizer, CoBr2/n-Bu3P as proton-reducing catalyst, and i-Pr2NEt/AcOH as the hydrogen source. Under the established catalytic system, the semihydrogenation proceeds with Z as the major selectivity and with inhibition of over-reduction. Under mild reaction conditions, both internal and terminal alkynes, as well as reducible functional groups such as halogen, cyano, and ester, are tolerated. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed the dual role of the photosensitizer in initiating the reaction via a single-electron transfer process and controlling the stereoselectivity via an energy transfer process.
