Abstract
Reported here is a nickel-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aromatic iodides with (hetero)aryl anilines and alkyl amines under atmospheric CO pressure. The reaction features with broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance, providing an expedient method for the construction of amide analogues. Notably, amino alcohols can be selectively transformed into the corresponding amides successfully without interfering the hydroxyl group under the current standard conditions.

Abstract
An efficient and practical phosphine-catalyzed vicinal difunctionalization of β-fluoroalkyl α,β-enones with TMSN3 has been developed. Using dppb as the catalyst, the reaction worked efficiently to yield various β-amino α-diazocarbonyl compounds in high yields (up to 94 %). This work marks the first efficient construction of α-diazocarbonyl compounds by phosphine catalysis. Meanwhile, the asymmetric variant induced by the nucleophilic bifunctional phosphine P4 led to various chiral fluoroalkylated β-amino α-diazocarbonyl compounds in high yields and enantioselectivity. NMR and ESI-MS studies support the existence of the key reaction intermediates. In contrast, β-azide carbonyl compounds would be furnished in good yields from β-fluoroalkylated β,β-disubstituted enones.

Abstract
A highly efficient catalyst system for base-free catalytic Wittig reactions has been developed and optimized. Initially, several potential (pre)catalysts as well as different silanes as reducing agents were screened. A system based on a readily available phosphine oxide as precatalyst and trimethoxy silane as reducing agent proved to be optimal. The effect of various Brønsted acidic additives was studied. Subsequently, the reaction conditions were optimized and standard reaction conditions were determined. Under these conditions the scope of this new protocol was evaluated. Nine activated olefins and 33 aldehydes were converted into 42 highly functionalized alkenes. Notably, aromatic, aliphatic as well as heteroaromatic aldehydes could be converted, giving the desired products in isolated yields up to 99 % and with good to excellent E/Z selectivities. These results underline the remarkable efficiency of this protocol considering the complexity of the reaction mixture and the four reaction steps that proceed in parallel in one pot.

Abstract
The first base-free catalytic Wittig reaction utilizing readily available Bu3P (5 mol %) as an organocatalyst is reported. The initial Michael addition of the phosphine to a suitable acceptor substituted alkene ultimately results in the formation of an ylide which is subsequently converted with an aldehyde. The presented (1)H NMR studies actually reveal evidence for the Michael addition and proposed ylide formation. Under the optimized reaction conditions various maleates and fumarates were converted with aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic aldehydes to evaluate the scope and limitations of this unprecedented reaction. Notably, maleates and fumarates react in a stereoconvergent fashion. The corresponding products were obtained in up to 95% isolated yield and E/Z-selectivities up to 99:1.

Abstract
The first examples of catalytic Wittig reactions with semistabilized and nonstabilized ylides are reported. These reactions were enabled by utilization of a masked base, sodium tert-butyl carbonate, and/or ylide tuning. The acidity of the ylide-forming proton was tuned by varying the electron density at the phosphorus center in the precatalyst, thus facilitating the use of relatively mild bases. Steric modification of the precatalyst structure resulted in significant enhancement of E selectivity up to >95:5, E/Z.

Abstract
The conversion of oxygen-containing compounds is often achieved by the use of phosphorus reagents. The newly formed phosphine oxide bond delivers the enthalpic gain that drives reactions, such as the Wittig, Mitsunobu, and Appel reaction, to completion. However, phosphine oxides are recognized as undesirable waste products and in the past decade several methods have emerged that address this issue by in situ regeneration of the phosphorus reagent. This Minireview outlines the two distinct strategies and underpinning research that led to these advances. The potential of the emerging field of phosphorus catalysis in chemistry is shown and new developments that may stimulate further research are described.

Abstract
One ring no longer rules them all: Employment of 2.5-10 mol % of 4-nitrobenzoic acid with phenylsilane led to the development of a room temperature catalytic Wittig reaction (see scheme). Moreover, these enhanced reduction conditions also facilitated the use of acyclic phosphine oxides as catalysts for the first time. A series of alkenes were produced in moderate to high yield and selectivity.
