An unprecedented arylboration of unactivated terminal alkenes, featuring 1,n-regioselectivity, has been achieved by nickel catalysis. The nitrogen-based ligand plays an essential role in the success of this three-component reaction. This transformation displays good regioselectivity and excellent functional-group tolerance. In addition, the incorporation of a boron group into the products provides substantial opportunities for further transformations. Also demonstrated is that the products can be readily transformed into pharmaceutically relevant molecules. Unexpectedly, preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that although the metal migration favors the α-position of boron, selective and decisive bond formation is favored at the benzylic position.

Simple air and moisture stable ruthenium complexes 1-3 and 3a were synthesized from readily available benzannulated N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (bimy = benzimidazolin-2-ylidene). These complexes were found to be efficient catalysts for the alkylation of amines using alcohols as alkylating agents. Catalysts 1, 2 and 3a gave excellent yields of up to 99% for the alkylation of various amines using benzylic and aliphatic alcohols at 130 °C for 18 h under solventless conditions. Catalyst 3a bearing both phosphine and carbene ligands gave excellent yields of up to 98% for the synthesis of heterocyclic amines by double alkylation of primary amines using linear diols. The practical utility of these catalysts was demonstrated for the synthesis of pharmaceutically important amines in a more environmentally benign way under solventless conditions.

A novel rhodium catalytic system with Naphos as ligand was developed for an efficient hydroaminomethylation of 1,1-diphenylethene under relatively mild conditions. This will allow for an atom-economic and environmentally benign synthesis of fenpiprane and related pharmaceuticals.
