We disclose a Ni-catalyzed reductive arylcyanation of alkene using environmentally benign and nontoxic organo cyanating reagent N-cyano-N-phenyl-p-toluenesulfonamide. This reaction provides a new method for the rapid synthesis of cyano-substituted oxindoles and isoquinoline-1,3-diones and features high functional group tolerance. In addition, an enantioselective version was developed for the construction of enantiomerically enriched 3-cyanomethyl oxindole. This method has also been applied to the synthesis of natural alkaloids (+)-esermethole and (+)-physostigmine.

A straightforward Ni(ii)-catalyzed general strategy was developed for the ortho-halogenation of electron-deficient arenes with easily available halogenating reagents N-halosuccinimides (NXS; X = Br, Cl and I). The transformation was highly regioselective and a wide substrate scope and functional group tolerance were observed. This discovery could be of great significance for the selective halogenation of amides, benzoic esters and other substances with guiding groups. Mechanistic investigations were also described.
