Abstract
Divergent catalysis represents an exciting frontier for unlocking molecular structural diversity and exploring new activation modes. Here, we report the unexpected discovery of polarity-reversed divergent activation and functionalization of aliphatic aldehydes, where enolizable aliphatic aldehydes are selectively activated by nickel hydride to form two distinct alkylnickel intermediates divergently. This mild and operationally simple process enables the transformation of a wide variety of readily available aliphatic aldehydes, along with alkyl or aryl electrophiles, into the corresponding secondary alcohols or more challenging deoxygenated alkanes with excellent chemoselectivity.

Abstract
Herein, a nickel-catalyzed divergent reductive-Heck reaction of 1-bromo-2-((2-(aryl/alkyl ethynyl)phenoxy)methyl)benzene and 2-(aryl/alkyl ethynyl)phenyl 2-bromobenzenesulfonate derivatives has been demonstrated through the regulation of reducing agents and solvent systems. This scalable protocol offers regio- and stereoselective access to functionalized dibenzo[b,e]oxepine and dibenzo[c,f][1,2]oxathiepine 6,6-dioxide scaffolds in high to excellent yields under a mild set of reaction conditions. This methodology offers a predictable route for the synthesis of medium ring oxygen heterocycles and demonstrates wide substrate scope and outstanding tolerance to various functional groups like hydroxyl and, of course, practical instance via the synthesis of doxepin and nordoxepin molecules. We validate the experimentally proposed reaction mechanism using the density functional theory method. Further, molecular docking interactions were investigated accommodating some of our synthesized molecules.

Abstract
The dynamic translocation of a metal catalyst along an alkyl side chain - often coined as 'chain-walking' - has opened new retrosynthetic possibilities that enable functionalization at unactivated C(sp3)-H sites. The use of nickel complexes in chain-walking strategies has recently gained considerable momentum owing to their versatility for forging sp3 architectures and their redox promiscuity that facilitates both one-electron or two-electron reaction manifolds. This Review discusses the relevance and impact that these processes might have in synthetic endeavours, including mechanistic considerations when appropriate. Particular emphasis is given to the latest discoveries that leverage the potential of Ni-catalysed chain-walking scenarios for tackling transformations that would otherwise be difficult to accomplish, including the merger of chain-walking with other new approaches such as photoredox catalysis or electrochemical activation.

Abstract
A Pd-catalyzed asymmetric isomerization-hydroamidocarbonylation of amide-containing alkenes was developed, affording a variety of chiral α-alkyl succinimides in moderate to good yields with high enantioselectivities. The key to success was introducing bulky 1-adamentyl P-substitution and 2,3,5,6-tetramethoxyphenyl group into the rigid P-chirogenic bisphosphine ligand to create stronger steric hinderance and deeper catalytic pocket. By this approach, regio- or stereo-convergent synthesis of enantiomeric succinimides from the mixture of olefin isomers was achieved.

Abstract
Catalytic asymmetric hydroboration of unsaturated bonds has been recognized as the most straightforward method for the construction of chiral organoboron compounds. Although catalytic asymmetric hydroboration of alkenes has been well-developed, enantioselective hydroboration of allenes still remains rare probably due to the challenges in controlling the enantio-, stereo-, and regioselectivity. Additionally, the hydroboration products might go through over-borohydride, making the catalytic asymmetric dihydroboration of allenes challenging. Here, we report a cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric dihydroboration of allenes using a ligand relay strategy with two simple ligands. This protocol shows excellent enantio-, stereo-, and regioselectivity with positive functional group compatibilities in the construction of chiral 1,4-diboronate products. The applications of this reaction are demonstrated by various product derivatizations, gram-scale reactions, and the preparation of artigenin analogues. Mechanistic studies indicate that the achiral ligand controls the first hydroboration of allenes, and the chiral oxazoline iminopyridine ligand is responsible for the subsequent isomerization and asymmetric hydroboration.

Abstract
Monofluoroalkenes serve as nonhydrolyzable mimetics of amides and are frequently encountered in drug candidates. Herein we report a regio-, enantio-, and stereoselective NiH-catalyzed ipso- and migratory defluorinative olefin cross-coupling employing readily available olefins and gem-difluoroalkenes under mild conditions. This approach enables the efficient synthesis of a broad array of structurally diverse monofluoroalkenes bearing a tertiary allylic stereogenic center. Mechanistically, the challenging migratory defluorinative olefin cross-coupling process is successfully realized through a ligand relay catalytic strategy, enabling the formal C(sp3)-H/C(sp2)-F activation with high levels of regio-, stereo-, and enantiocontrol.

Abstract
The construction of fluorinated architectures has been a topic of interest to medicinal chemists due to their unique ability to improve the pharmacokinetic properties of bioactive compounds. However, the stereoselective synthesis of fluoro-organic compounds with vicinal stereogenic centers is a challenge. Herein, we present a directing-groupfree nickel-hydride catalyzed hydroalkylation of fluoroalkenes to afford fluorinated motifs with two adjacent chiral centers in excellent yields and stereoselectivities. Our method provides expedient access to biologically relevant, highly enantioenriched organofluorine compounds. Furthermore, the strategy can be used for the diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of vicinal difluorides, which have recently gained attention in the fields of organocatalysis and peptide mimics.

Abstract
1,2-Difunctionalization of alkynes offers a straightforward approach to access polysubstituted alkenes. However, simultaneous multi-component cascade transformations including difunctionalization of two alkynes with both syn- and anti-selectivity in one catalyst system is undeveloped and proves to be a significant challenge. Herein, we report a Nickel-catalyzed four-component reaction to access polysubstituted 1,3-dienes using two terminal alkynes, aryl boroxines, and perfluoroalkyl iodides, wherein the reaction forms three new C-C bonds in a single vessel and serve as a modular strategy to access polysubstituted 1,3-dienes with excellent chemoselectivity, good regioselectivity and exclusive stereoselectivity. Control experiments reveal the plausible reaction mechanism and DFT calculations explain the cause for the formation of this unusual four-component reaction. Furthermore, we successfully incorporate two biologically active units into 1,2,3,4-tetrasubstituted 1,3-dienes, which greatly increases the diversity of molecular scaffolds and brings more potential values to medicinal chemistry, the synthetic utility of our protocol is further demonstrated by the late-stage transformations.

Abstract
Enantioselective three-component difunctionalization of alkenes with boron reagents represents an attractive strategy for assembling three-dimensional chiral organoboron compounds. However, regio- and enantiocontrol comprise the pivot challenges in these transformations, which predominantly require the use of activated conjugated alkenes. Herein, by utilizing various carbonyl directing groups, including amides, sulfinamides, ketones, and esters, we succeed in realizing a nickel-catalyzed 1,2-borylalkynylation of unactivated alkenes to enable the simultaneous incorporation of a boron entity and an sp-fragment across the double bond. The products contain boryl, alkynyl, and carbonyl functional groups with orthogonal synthetic reactivities, offering three handles for further derivatization to access valuable intermediates. The utility of this ligand-enabled asymmetric protocol has been highlighted through the late-stage decoration of drug-relevant molecules.

Abstract
In contrast to the kinetically favored outward isomerization-hydrocarbonylation of alkenes, the disfavored inward isomerization-hydrocarbonylation of alkenes remains an important challenge. Herein, we have developed a novel and effective palladium-catalyzed inward isomerization-hydroaminocarbonylation of unactivated alkenes and aniline hydrochlorides for the formation of synthetically valuable α-aryl carboxylic amides in high yields and high site-selectivities. The high efficiency of the reaction is attributed to a relay catalysis strategy, in which the Markovnikov-favored [PdH]-PtBu3 catalyst is responsible for inward isomerization, while the [PdH]-Ruphos catalyst is responsible for hydroaminocarbonylation of the resulting conjugated aryl alkenes. The reaction exhibits highly functional group tolerance and provides a new method for formal carbonylation of remote C(sp3)-H bond.

Abstract
Metal-hydride-catalyzed migratory functionalization of alkenes witnessed extensive development in the past few years. However, the asymmetric version of this reaction has remained largely underdeveloped owing to the difficulty in simultaneous control of both regio- and stereoselectivity. In addition, exploring the wider alkene substrate scope to enable more synthetically valuable applications represents another challenge in this field. In this context, a nickel-catalyzed asymmetric hydrocyanation of internal alkenes involving a chain-walking process is demonstrated. The reaction exhibits excellent regio- and enantioselectivity, proceeds under mild reaction conditions, and delivers benzylic nitriles in high yields. Even α,ω-diaryl internal alkenes, which are known to be one of the most challenging substrates of this type, could be successfully converted to the desired products with good regio- and stereoselectivity by modifying the electronic and steric effects. Theoretical calculations suggest that the η3-benzyl coordination mode and the aryl substituent (3,5-(OMe)2C6H3) on the diphosphite ligand are both key factors in regulating regio- and enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Complementary to the design of a single structurally complex chiral ligand to promote each step in transition-metal catalysis, multiligand relay catalysis through dynamic ligand exchange with each step in the catalytic cycle promoted by its best ligand provides an attractive approach to enhance the whole reaction reactivity and selectivity. Herein, a regio- and enantioselective NiH-catalyzed migratory hydroarylation process with a simple combination of a chain-walking ligand and an asymmetric arylation ligand, producing high-value chiral α-(hetero)aryl-substituted amines and their derivatives under mild conditions, is reported. The potential synthetic applications of this transformation are demonstrated by the concise synthesis of (S)-nicotine and a CDK8 inhibitor.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed direct decarboxylative transformations of aromatic carboxylic acids usually require high temperatures, which limit the substrate's scope, especially for late-stage applications. The development of the selective decarbonylative of carboxylic acid derivatives, especially the most fundamental aroyl chlorides, with stable and cheap electrophiles under mild conditions is highly desirable and meaningful, but remains challenging. Herein, a strategy of nickel-catalyzed decarbonylative alkylation of aroyl chlorides via phosphine/nitrogen ligand relay is reported. The simple phosphine ligand is found essential for the decarbonylation step, while the nitrogen ligand promotes the cross-electrophile coupling. Such a ligand relay system can effectively and orderly carry out the catalytic process at room temperature, utilizing easily available aroyl chlorides as an aryl electrophile for reductive alkylation. This discovery provides a new strategy for direct decarbonylative coupling, features operationally simple, mild conditions, and excellent functional group tolerance. The mild approach is applied to the late-stage methylation of various pharmaceuticals. Extensive experiments are carried out to provide insights into the reaction pathway and support the ligand relay process.

Abstract
ConspectusMigratory cross-coupling via metal migration is a process of significant academic and industrial interest. It provides an attractive alternative for the selective installation of a functional group at remote C-H positions from simple precursors, thus enabling the direct synthesis of challenging structures not accessible with traditional cross-coupling. In particular, with the merger of 1,n-Ni/H shift and cross-coupling of nickel, the Ni-catalyzed migratory functionalization of simple precursors has undergone particularly intense development and emerged as a valuable field of research in the past few years. This Account will outline the recent progress made in this arena in terms of migration-functionalization modes, diverse functionalizations, and strategies for regio- and stereocontrol. Mechanistic studies and synthetic applications are also discussed.In detail, we systematically categorize our work into two parts based on the migration modes. In the first part, a platform is created for Ni-catalyzed migratory sp3 C-H functionalization of alkenes or alkyl halides via iterative 1,2-Ni/H shift-selective cross-coupling. The key reactive Ni(II)H species for chain-walking could be generated in situ either in a polarity-reversed fashion relying on stoichiometric reductants (X-Ni(II)-H) or in a redox-neutral fashion with the participation of nucleophilic coupling partners (FG-Ni(II)-H). One significant advantage associated with the polarity-reversed NiH system is the use of relatively stable, abundant, and safe olefin surrogates or alkyl halides instead of the sensitive organometallics required in traditional cross-coupling reactions. Another advantage is that diverse functionalizations, including carbonation and more challenging amination and thiolation could be smoothly achieved with suitable electrophiles or their precursors. Finally, to address the challenging multifaceted selectivity and reactivity issues in asymmetric migratory cross-coupling reactions, we have developed a feasible ligand relay catalytic strategy. In this dynamic ligand exchange process, one ligand promotes rapid migration while the other promotes highly regio- and stereoselective coupling. This innovative strategy overcomes the formidable challenge stemming from the difficulty of designing a single ligand to efficiently promote both steps of chain-walking and asymmetric coupling. In the second part, a new platform for Ni-catalyzed migratory sp2 C-H functionalization via 1,4-Ni/H shift-selective cross-coupling has been reported. Starting from readily available aryl or vinyl coupling partners, the in situ-generated aryl- or vinylnickel(II) species could undergo a rapid and reversible 1,4-Ni/H shift along an sp2 backbone, and subsequent selective coupling with various coupling partners would allow regio- and stereoselective access to diverse 1,4-migratory functionalization products. The key to success was the discovery of an appropriate ligand to efficiently promote both migration and subsequent selective cross-coupling. A vinyl-to-aryl 1,4-Ni/H shift successfully enables the modular ipso/ortho difunctionalization of aryl coupling partners, while an aryl-to-vinyl 1,4-Ni/H shift enables regio- and stereoselective access to functionalized trisubstituted alkenes.We hope that this Account will inspire broad interest and future development of migratory cross-coupling reactions. We strongly believe that continued efforts in this fascinating field will overcome many of the remaining challenges, including cutting-edge ligand/catalyst design to enhance reactivity and selectivity, conceptually new migration modes for additional transformations, and in-depth mechanistic studies for rational reaction design.

Abstract
Organosilicon compounds have shown tremendous potential in drug discovery and their synthesis stimulates wide interest. Multicomponent cross-coupling of alkenes with silicon reagents is used to yield complex silicon-containing compounds from readily accessible feedstock chemicals but the reaction with simple alkenes remains challenging. Here, we report a regioselective silylalkylation of simple alkenes, which is enabled by using a stable Ni(II) salt and an inexpensive trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane ligand as a catalyst. Remarkably, this reaction can tolerate a broad range of olefins bearing various functional groups, including alcohol, ester, amides and ethers, thus it allows for the efficient and selective assembly of a diverse range of bifunctional organosilicon building blocks from terminal alkenes, alkyl halides and the Suginome reagent. Moreover, an expedient synthetic route toward alpha-Lipoic acid has been developed by this methodology.

Abstract
Hydroamination facilitated by metal hydride catalysis is an appealing synthetic approach to access valuable nitrogen-containing compounds from readily available unsaturated hydrocarbons. While high regioselectivity can be achieved usually for substrates bearing polar chelation groups, the reaction involving simple alkenes frequently provides nonselective outcomes. Herein, we report an iridium-catalyzed highly regioselective terminal C(sp3)-H amidation of internal alkenes utilizing dioxazolones as an amino source via olefin chain walking. Most notably, this mechanistic motif of double bond migration to the terminal position operates not only with dialkyl-substituted simple alkenes including styrenes but also with heteroatom-substituted olefins such as enol ethers, vinyl silanes, and vinyl borons, thus representing the first example of the terminal methyl amidation of the latter type of alkenes through a nondissociative chain walking process.

Abstract
Catalytic methods which control multiple stereogenic centers simultaneously are highly desirable in modern organic synthesis and chemical manufacturing. Herein, we report a regio-, enantio-, and diastereoselective NiH-catalyzed hydroalkylation process which proceeds with simultaneous control of vicinal stereocenters originating from two readily accessible partners, prochiral internal alkenes (enamides or enecarbamates) and racemic alkyl electrophiles (α-bromoamides or Katritzky salts). This reaction produces high-value β-aminoamides and their derivatives under mild conditions and with precise selectivity. Preliminary studies of the mechanism indicate that the reaction involves an enantioselective syn-hydronickelation to generate an enantiomerically enriched alkylnickel(II) species. Subsequent enantioconvergent alkylation with a racemic alkyl electrophile generates the desired product as a single stereoisomer.

Abstract
Chain walking has been an efficient route to realize the functionalization of inert C(sp3 )-H bonds, but this strategy is limited to mono-olefin migration and functionalization. Herein, we demonstrate the feasibility of tandem directed simultaneous migrations of remote olefins and stereoselective allylation for the first time. The adoption of palladium hydride catalysis and secondary amine morpholine as solvent is critical for achieving high substrate compatibility and stereochemical control with this method. The protocol is also applicable to the functionalization of three vicinal C(sp3 )-H bonds and thus construct three continuous stereocenters along a propylidene moiety via a short synthetic process. Preliminary mechanistic experiments corroborated the design of simultaneous walking of remote dienes.

Abstract
Metal/ligand in situ assembly is crucial for tailoring the reactivity & selectivity in transition metal catalysis. Cooperative catalysis via a single metal/two ligands is still underdeveloped, since it is rather challenging to harness the distinct reactivity profiles of the species generated by self-assembly of a single metal precursor with a mixture of different ligands. Herein, we report a catalytic system composed of a single metal/two ligands for a three-component reaction of polyfluoroarene, α-diazo ester, and allylic electrophile, leading to highly efficient construction of densely functionalized quaternary carbon centers, that are otherwise hardly accessible. Mechanistic studies suggest this reaction follows a cooperative bimetallic pathway via two catalysts with distinct reactivity profiles, which are assembled in situ from a single metal precursor and two ligands and work in concert to escort the transformation.

Abstract
The construction of C-C and C-X (X = N, O, Si, etc.) bonds is an important field in organic synthesis and methodology. In recent decades, studies on transition metal-catalyzed functionalization of alkenes have been on the rise. The individual properties of different transition metals determine the type of reaction that can be applied. Generally, post-transition metals with a large number of electrons in the d-orbit such as Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn, etc., can be applied to more reaction types than pre-transition metals with a small number of electrons (e.g., Ti, Zr, etc.). Alkyl nickel intermediates formed by oxidative addition could couple with various of nucleophiles or electrophiles. Moreover, nickel has several oxidation valence states, which can flexibly realize a variety of catalytic cycles. These characteristics make nickel favored by researchers in the field of functionalization of alkenes, especially for the hydrofunctionalization of alkenes. Both terminal and internal alkenes could be converted, and the strategies of synthesizing linear and branched compounds have been expanded. Moreover, the guiding groups in alkenes played an almost decisive role in the regional selectivity, and the ligand or temperature also had regulating effects. Herein, we will give a comprehensive and timely overview of the works about the Ni-catalyzed hydrofunctionalization of alkenes and some insights on regional selectivity.

Abstract
Site- and enantio-selective alkyl-alkyl bond formation is privileged in the retrosynthetic analysis due to the universality of sp3-hybridized carbon atoms in organic molecules. Herein, we report a nickel-catalyzed remote asymmetric hydroalkylation of alkenyl ethers via synchronous implementation of alkene isomerization and enantioselective C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond formation. Regression analysis of catalyst structure-activity relationships accelerates the rational ligand modification through modular regulation. This reaction has several advantages for synthesizing chiral dialkyl carbinols and their ether derivatives, including the broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, excellent regioselectivity (>20:1 regioisomeric ratio), and high enantioselectivity (up to 95% enantiomeric excess).

Abstract
Remote hydrofunctionalizations of alkenes incorporate functional groups distal to existing carbon-carbon double bonds. While remote carbonylations are well-known, remote hydrofunctionalizations are most common for addition of relatively nonpolar B-H, Si-H, and C-H bonds with alkenes. We report a system for the remote hydroamination of disubstituted alkenes to functionalize an alkyl chain selectively at the subterminal, unactivated, methylene position. Critical to the high regioselectivity and reaction rates are the electronic properties of the substituent on the amine and the development of the ligand DIP-Ad-SEGPHOS by evaluating the steric and electronic effects of ligand modules on reactivity and selectivity. The remote hydroamination is compatible with a broad scope of alkenes and aminopyridines and enables the regioconvergent synthesis of amines from an isomeric mixture of alkenes. The products can be derivatized by nucleophilic aromatic substitution on the amino substituent with a variety of nucleophiles.

Abstract
Density functional theory calculations have been performed to investigate the palladium-catalyzed remote diborylative cyclization of dienes. The computations reveal that the reaction proceeds through a rarely explored Pd(II)/Pd(IV) catalytic cycle, and the formal σ-bond metathesis between the alkylpalladium intermediate and B2 pin2 occurs via the pathway of the B-B oxidative addition/C-B reductive elimination involving the high-valent Pd(IV) species. The diastereoselectivity is determined by the migratory insertion into the Pd-C bond, which is mainly due to the combination of the torsional strain effect, steric repulsion and C-H-O hydrogen-bonding interaction. The steric hindrance around the reacting carbon group in the C-B reductive elimination turns out to be a key factor to provide the driving force of the chain walking of the Pd center to the terminal primary carbon position, enabling the experimentally observed remote regioselectivity.

Abstract
Alkenes represent one of the most useful building blocks for organic synthesis, owing to their abundance and versatile reactivity. Transition metal (Pd, Cu, Co, Ni, Fe, etc.) catalyzed difunctionalization of alkenes provides efficient access to substituted molecules from readily available alkenes by installing functional groups across their carbon-carbon double bonds. Particularly, Nickel-based catalytic complexes have attracted a great deal of attention. This is because they are prone to undergoing oxidative addition and slow β-hydride elimination, and can access both two-electron and radical pathways. Numerous elegant Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling methods, e.g., (hetero)arylboration, alkenylboration, alkylboration and alkynylboration of alkenes, have been developed with broad scopes and a high tolerance to a variety of functional groups. Therefore, the Ni-catalyzed carboboration of alkenes has become an efficient synthetic protocol to deliver substituted compounds by the cross-coupling of alkenes, electrophiles, and B2Pin2. Despite this progress, a number of challenging issues remaining in the field include broadening the types of carboboration reactions, especially the asymmetric ones, diversifying electrophile types (which is limited to halogens for now) and gaining profound insight into the reaction mechanisms. This review summarizes the recent progress in this emerging field from the literature published since 2018. It will provide the scientific community with convenience to access collective information and to accelerate their further research in order to broaden the scope of methodology and application in drug discovery programs.

Abstract
Transition metal hydride catalyzed functionalization of remote and proximal olefins has many advantages over conventional cross-coupling reactions. It avoids the separate, prior generation of stoichiometric amounts of organometallic reagents and the use of preformed organometallic reagents, which are sometimes hard to access and may compromise functional group compatibility. The migratory insertion of metal hydride complexes generated in situ into readily available alkene starting materials, the hydrometalation process, provides an attractive and straightforward route to alkyl metal intermediates, which can undergo a variety of sequential cross-coupling reactions. In particular, with the synergistic combination of chain-walking and cross-coupling chemistry of nickel, NiH-catalyzed functionalization of remote and proximal olefins has undergone particularly intense development in the past few years. This Account aims to chronicle the progress made in this arena in terms of activation modes, diverse functionalizations, and chemo-, regio-, and enantioselectivity.We first provide a brief introduction to the general reaction mechanisms. Taking remote hydroarylation as an example, the four oxidation states of Ni have allowed us to develop two different reaction strategies to form the final product: a Ni(I)-H/X-Ni(II)-H platform that relies on stoichiometric reductants and a Ni(I/II/III) cycle and a redox-neutral functional group or FG-Ni(II)-H platform that reacts with an alkene substrate and forms the migratory products via a Ni(0/II) pathway. We also demonstrate that diverse functionalization, including general C-C bond-forming reactions and the more challenging C-N/C-S bond-forming reactions could be realized. Moreover, the employment of appropriate chiral ligands has allowed us to successfully realize the corresponding asymmetric hydrofunctionalization reactions of olefins, including hydroalkylation, hydroarylation, hydroalkenylation, hydroalkynylation, and hydroamination. Interestingly, the enantio-determining step could be enantioselective hydronickelation, selective oxidative addition, or selective reductive elimination. To realize more challenging asymmetric migratory hydrofunctionalization, we have developed a general ligand relay catalytic strategy with a combination of two simple ligands, the first for chain-walking and the second for asymmetric coupling. This novel strategy avoids the design of a single, possibly structurally complex chiral ligand to promote both steps of chain-walking and asymmetric coupling. In addition, the success of multicomponent hydrofunctionalization provides a convenient approach to gain simple access to complex molecules. Finally, alkyl halides could be used as olefin precursors to undergo a variety of reductive migratory cross-electrophile coupling reactions. Applications of these remote hydrofunctionalization reactions are also discussed. We hope this Account will inspire future development in the field to overcome key challenges, including conceptually new catalytic strategies, development of high-performance systems with enhanced reactivity and selectivity, cutting-edge catalyst design, and further mechanistic studies.

Abstract
Hydroarylation reactions play a pivotal role in organic chemistry due to their versatility and efficiency. In the last 10 years, the scientific production around this reaction has been very high, but in its asymmetric version, the results are less. In this mini review, selected literature examples are considered to draw attention to directions of the asymmetric hydroarylation reaction mediated by transition metal catalysts. The selected works were grouped in two main sections. In the first, we reported examples relating the narrower definition of hydroarylation, namely the metal-catalyzed processes where inactivated aryl moiety undergoes a direct functionalization via insertion of an unsaturated compound. In the second part, hydroarylation reactions take place with the use of pre-activated aryl substrates, usually aryl-iodides or aryl-boronated.

Abstract
Tertiary dialkylated allylic stereogenic centers are widespread substructures in bioactive molecules and natural products. However, enantioselective access to dialkyl substituted allylic motifs remains a long-term challenge. Herein, a straightforward protocol to build allylic dialkylated stereogenic centers enabled by nickel-catalysed regio- and enantioselective hydrovinylation of isolated unactivated alkenes facilitated by a weakly coordinating group with vinyl bromides was developed, affording dialkylated allylic species in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities. The reaction distinguishes distinct alkenes and works for both terminal and internal aliphatic alkenes. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions and tolerates a wide range of functional groups.

Enantioselective synthesis of α-aminoboronates by NiH-catalysed asymmetric hydroamidation of alkenyl boronates. Nat Commun 2022; 13:5630.

Abstract
Chiral α-aminoboronic acids and their derivatives are generally useful as bioactive compounds and some have been approved as therapeutic agents. Here we report a NiH-catalysed asymmetric hydroamidation process that with a simple amino alcohol ligand can easily produce a wide range of highly enantioenriched α-aminoboronates from alkenyl boronates and dioxazolones under mild conditions. The reaction is proposed to proceed by an enantioselective hydrometallation followed by an inner-sphere nitrenoid transfer and C–N bond forming sequence. The synthetic utility of this transformation was demonstrated by the efficient synthesis of a current pharmaceutical agent, Vaborbactam. Enantioenriched α-aminoboronic acid, a structural unit in many bioactive molecules, is also a valuable synthon in organic synthesis. Here, the authors disclose a NiH-catalysed asymmetric hydroamidation process for their direct synthesis.

Abstract
Linear, α-branched, and β-branched aliphatic amines are widespread in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals. Thus, the development of direct and efficient methods to these structures in a tunable manner is highly desirable yet challenging. Herein, a catalyst-controlled synthesis of α-branched, β-branched and linear aliphatic amines from Ni/Co-catalyzed regio- and site-selective hydroalkylations of alkenyl amines with alkyl halides is developed. This catalytic protocol features the reliable prediction and control of the coupling position of alkylation to provide orthogonal access to α-branched, β-branched and linear alkyl amines from identical starting materials. This platform unlocks orthogonal reactivity and selectivity of nickel hydride and cobalt hydride chemistry to catalytically repurpose three types of alkyl amines under mild conditions.

Abstract
A remote C(sp3 )-H bond asymmetric borylation of unactivated alkenes was achieved by bimetallic relay catalysis. The reaction proceeded through reversible and consecutive β-H elimination/olefin insertion promoted by CoH species generated in situ, followed by copper-catalyzed asymmetric protoboration. The use of this synergistic Co/Cu catalysis protocol allowed the enantioselective protoboration of various unactivated terminal alkenes and internal alkenes, as well as an unrefined mixture of olefin isomers, at the distal less-reactive β-position to a functional group, leading to chiral organoboronates.

Abstract
The asymmetric addition of an N-H bond to various alkenes via a direct catalytic method is a powerful way of synthesizing value-added chiral amines. Therefore, the enantio- and regioselective hydroamination of unactivated alkenes remains an appealing goal. Here, we report the highly enantio- and regioselective Ni-catalyzed hydroamination of readily available unactivated alkenes bearing weakly coordinating native amides or esters. This method succeeds for both terminal and internal unactivated alkenes and has a broad amine coupling partner scope. The mild reaction process is well suited for the late-stage functionalization of complex molecules and has the potential to gain modular access to enantioenriched β- or γ-amino acid derivatives and 1,2- or 1,3-diamines. Mechanistic studies reveal that a chiral bisoxazoline-bound Ni specie effectively leverages carbonyl coordination to achieve enantio- and regioselective NiH insertion into alkenes.

Abstract
The design of a single complicated chiral ligand to well-promote each step of an asymmetric cascade reaction is sometimes a formidable challenge in transition metal catalysis. In this work, a highly regio- and enantioselective Ni-catalysed migratory hydroarylation relay process has been achieved with the combination of two simple ligands, one which accomplishes chain-walking and the other causing asymmetric arylation. This formal asymmetric C(sp3)−H arylation provides direct access to a wide range of structurally diverse chiral 1,1-diarylalkanes, a structural unit found in a number of bioactive molecules. The value of this strategy was further demonstrated by the Ni-catalysed migratory asymmetric 1,3-arylboration. Migratory alkene isomerizations and cross-coupling reactions are both possible under nickel catalysis, but usually require different conditions. Here the authors show a combined protocol to isomerize a double bond and then, via an in-situ exchange of ligands, perform an enantioselective C(sp2)–C(sp3) cross-coupling.

Abstract
Alkene hydrocarbonation reactions have been developed to supplement traditional electrophile-nucleophile cross-coupling reactions. The branch-selective hydroalkylation method applied to a broad range of unactivated alkenes remains challenging. Herein, we report a NiH-catalysed proximal-selective hydroalkylation of unactivated alkenes to access β- or γ-branched alkyl carboxylic acids and β-, γ- or δ-branched alkyl amines. A broad range of alkyl iodides and bromides with different functional groups can be installed with excellent regiocontrol and availability for site-selective late-stage functionalization of biorelevant molecules. Under modified reaction conditions with NiCl2(PPh3)2 as the catalyst, migratory hydroalkylation takes place to provide β- (rather than γ-) branched products. The keys to success are the use of aminoquinoline and picolinamide as suitable directing groups and combined experimental and computational studies of ligand effects on the regioselectivity and detailed reaction mechanisms.
