Origins of Regioselectivity and Alkene-Directing Effects in Nickel- Catalyzed Reductive Couplings of Alkynes and Aldehydes
The origins of reactivity and regioselectivity in nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling reactions of alkynes and aldehydes were investigated with density functional calculations. The regioselectivities of reactions of simple alkynes are controlled by steric effects, while conjugated enynes and diynes...
