Catalytic carbene-transfer reactions constitute a class of highly useful transformations in organic synthesis. Although catalysts based on a range of transition-metals have been reported, the readily accessible nickel(II)-based complexes have been rarely used. Herein, an air-stable nickel(II)-carborane complex is reported as a well-defined, versatile and recyclable catalyst for selective carbene transfer reactions with low catalyst loading under mild conditions. This catalyst is effective for several types of reactions including diastereoselective cyclopropanation, epoxidation, selective X?H insertions (X = C, N, O, S, Si), particularly for the unprotected substrates. This represents a rare example of carborane ligands in base metal catalysis.

In this work, we report a thorough investigation of the reaction of phenols with aryldiazoacetates. Mechanistic studies using different spectroscopic methods and theoretical calculations suggest a hydrogen bond between phenol and aryldiazoacetates, which can be modulated by the phenol acidity. The pKA of phenol and therefore the hydrogen bond plays an important role in a subsequent photoinduced proton transfer reaction to give the formal O-H functionalization product of phenols.

The development of an efficient method for the site-selective substitution of unprotected phenols has long been considered as an attractive but challenging task. Herein, we describe a highly chemo- and ortho-selective substitution reaction of phenols with α-aryl α-diazoacetates with commercially available (C6F5)3B as the catalyst. This reaction proceeds under simple and mild conditions with high efficiency, it features a wide substrate scope and can be easily scaled up.
