Insights into the Mechanism, Regio-/Diastereoselectivities and Ligand Role of Nickel-Initiated [3+2] Cycloadditions between Vinylcyclopropane and <i>N</i>-Tosylbenzaldimine

Density functional theory (DFT) was employed to explore the reaction mechanism, regio- and diastereoselectivities of nickel-initiated [3+2] cycloaddition between vinylcyclopropane (VCP) and <i>N</i>-tosylbenzaldimine assisted by phosphine ligands. Four different binding modes of the nick...
