The transiently generated electrophilic terminal phosphinidene complex [(CO)WPCH(SiMe)] reacted with allyl halides (X = F, Cl, Br) in toluene resulting in the formation of stable C-X insertion products 3a-c and diastereomeric phosphirane complexes 4a,a',b,b' as well as methylenephosphirane complex 5 as observed by P{H} NMR spectroscopy. DFT calculations revealed that a novel rearrangement of transient phosphirane complexes is responsible involving C → P X atom transfer.

Presented herein is a nickel-catalyzed chemo- and regioselective three-component tandem carboamination and cyclization of terminal alkynes with organoboronic acids and anthranils for facile and modular access to 2,3-substituted quinolines. In this process, anthranil has dual roles: serving as an electrophilic aminating reagent and a redox buffer to suppress the generation of an off-cycle Ni(0) complex. Moreover, the anionic acetylacetonate (acac) ligand was found to be vital to ensure a productive Ni(I)-Ni(III)-Ni(I) catalytic cycle.

Herein we report a cobalt-catalyzed hydroglycosylation of terminal alkynes, employing bench-stable ortho-iodobiphenyl (oIB) substituted sulfides as glycosyl donors. This reaction occurs with high stereo- and regioselectivity to afford E-configured vinyl α-C-glycosides, a class of compounds nontrivial to access by previous methods. The use of a bis(oxazoline) ligand with bulky side chains is critical for the high selectivities observed.

The extent of coordination-induced bond weakening in aquo and hydroxo ligands bonded to a molybdenum(III) center complexed by a dianionic, pentadentate ligand system was probed by reacting the known complex (BPzPy)Mo(III)-NTf, , with degassed water or dry lithium hydroxide. The aquo adduct was not observed, but two LiNTf-stabilized hydroxo complexes were fully characterized. Computational and experimental work showed that the O-H bond in these complexes was significantly weakened (to ≈57 kcal mol), such that these compounds could be used to form the diamagnetic, neutral terminal molybdenum oxo complex (BPzPy)Mo(IV)O, , by hydrogen atom abstraction using the aryl oxyl reagent ArO• (Ar = 2,4,6-tri--butylphenyl).

The development of a metallic copper-based catalyst system remains a significant challenge. Herein, we report the synthesis of highly stable, active, and reusable Cu0 catalyst for the carboboration of alkynes using carbon electrophiles and bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2) as chemical feedstocks to afford di- and trisubstituted vinylboronate esters in a regio- and stereoselective manner with appreciable turnover number (TON) of up to 2535 under mild reaction conditions. This three-component coupling reaction works well with a variety of substituted electrophiles and alkynes with broad functional group tolerance.
