Ni/Ti Dual Catalytic Cross-Coupling of Nitriles and Organobromides to Access Ketones

Herein, we report the development of a dual catalytic approach for the cross-coupling of nitriles with aryl- and aliphatic-bromides. A titanium(III) catalyst is used to activate nitriles enabling their coupling with organobromides through a nickel catalyst. The Ni/Ti system efficiently prepared unsymmetrical ketones with good chemoselectivity and could selectively couple a bromide in the presence of other functionalizable handles.
REDUCTIVE COUPLING OF BENZOIC ACID HALIDES AND ESTERS USING LOW-VALENT TITANIUM

The reductive coupling of (substituted) benzoic acid chlorides and esters is achieved using low-valent titanium, generated from TiCl3 and LiAlH4.Both acid chlorides and esters seem to follow the same two reaction pathways: one path via tolanes to stilbenes, the other via benzils to complex mixtures of products arising from reduction and further coupling reactions.Although the exact product balance depends upon the reaction conditions the major product is (substituted) cis-stilbene.
