N-Heterocyclic carbenenickel complexes with five- and four-coordinate geometries [(CNC)NiBr2] and [(CNC)NiBr]X (X=PF6 or BPh4) have been prepared with the pincer ligands 2,6-bis(N- octylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene)pyridine and 2,6-bis(N-butyl-5,6- dimethoxybenzimidazolin-2-ylidene)pyridine. The addition of the n-octyl substituent significantly extends the solubility of the complexes and has allowed UV-vis solution studies of the complexes in dichloromethane and methanol. The four- and five-coordinate species exist in equilibrium in solution and this equilibrium has been explored by UV-vis studies. The complexes have also been characterized by NMR studies, and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies have been performed on [(CNC)NiBr2] (where CNC=2,6-bis(N-octylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene)pyridine) and [(CNC)NiBr]BPh 4 (where CNC=2,6-bis(N-butyl-5,6-dimethoxybenzimidazolin-2-ylidene) pyridine).

This paper discloses the efficient palladium-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov oxidative acetalization of activated terminal olefins with iron(iii) sulfate as the reoxidant. This methodology requires mild reaction conditions and shows high regioselectivity toward anti-Markovnikov products and compatibility with a wide range of functional groups. Iron(iii) sulphate was the sole reoxidant used in this method. Various olefins like vinylarenes, aryl-allylethers, aryl or benzyl acrylates and homoallylic alcohols all reacted well providing anti-Markovnikov acetals, some of which represent orthogonally functionalized 1,3- and 1,4-dioxygenated compounds.

A new method that allows the complete control of the regioselectivity of the hydrobromination reaction of alkenes is described. Herein, we report a radical procedure with TMSBr and oxygen as common reagents, where the formation of the anti-Markovnikov product occurs in the presence of parts per million amounts of the Cu(I) species and the formation of the Markovnikov product occurs in the presence of 30 mol % iron(II) bromide. Density functional theory calculations combined with Fukui's radical susceptibilities support the obtained results.

The regioselective conversion of alkyl-substituted alkenes into linear hydroaminoalkylation products represents a strongly desirable synthetic transformation. In particular, such conversions of N-methylamine derivatives are of great scientific interest, because they would give direct access to important amines with unbranched alkyl chains. Herein, we present a new one-pot procedure that includes an initial alkene hydroaminoalkylation with an α-silylated amine substrate and a subsequent protodesilylation reaction that delivers linear hydroaminoalkylation products with high selectivity from simple alkyl-substituted alkenes. For that purpose, new titanium catalysts have been developed, which are able to activate the α-C?H bond of more challenging α-silylated amine substrates. In addition, a direct relationship between the ligand structure of the new catalysts and the obtained regioselectivity is described.
