Ligand-controlled stereodivergent alkenylation of alkynes to access functionalized trans- and cis-1,3-dienes

The stereoselective synthesis of 1,3-dienes represents a challenge in organic synthesis. Here, the authors report a ligand-controlled stereodivergent access to both Z- and E-sulfonyl-1,3-dienes via photoredox and nickel catalysis.
