摘要
Cross C–C bond formation of two vinyl electrophiles is a long-standing challenge in synthetic chemistry.Herein,we report a nickel-catalyzed reductive vinyl–vinyl coupling between vinyl triflates and boron-substituted vinyl bromides.This new protocol offers facile access to dienylboronates with high structural complexity and molecular diversity.The reaction proceeds with a broad substrate scope under very mild conditions.The synthetic utility of the method is highlighted by its gram-scale reaction,modification of complex molecules,and diverse transformation of the products.
