Abstract
Understanding mechanistic details of the nickel-catalyzed coupling reactions of Csp3 alcohol derivatives is key to developing selective reactions of this widely prevalent functional group. In this manuscript, we utilize a combination of experimental data and DFT studies to define the key intermediates, stereochemical outcome, and competing pathways of a nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling reaction of 1,3-dimesylates. Stereospecific formation of a 1,3-diiodide intermediate is achieved in situ by the Grignard reagent. The overall stereoablative stereochemical outcome is due to a nickel-catalyzed halogen atom abstraction with a radical rebound that is slower than epimerization of the alkyl radical. Finally, lifetimes of this alkyl radical intermediate are compared to radical clocks to enhance the understanding of the lifetime of the secondary alkyl radical.

Abstract
A method for incorporating cyclopropane motifs into complex molecules has been developed. Herein we report a zinc dust-mediated cross-electrophile coupling reaction of 1,3-dimesylates to synthesize cyclopropanes. 1,3-Dimesylates can be readily accessed from 1,3-diols, a functionality prevalent in many natural products and medicinal agents. The reaction conditions are mild, such that functional groups, including amides, esters, heterocycles, and alkenes, are tolerated. Notably, we have demonstrated late-stage cyclopropanation of statin medicinal agents.

Abstract
tert-Butoxide unlocks new reactivity patterns embedded in nitroarenes. Exposure of nitrostilbenes to sodium tert-butoxide was found to produce N-hydroxyindoles at room temperature without an additive. Changing the counterion to potassium changed the reaction outcome to yield solely oxindoles through an unprecedented dioxygen-transfer reaction followed by a 1,2-phenyl migration. Mechanistic experiments established that these reactions proceed via radical intermediates and suggest that counterion coordination controls whether an oxindole or N-hydroxyindole product is formed.

Abstract
An unexpected [4 + 1 + 1] annulation between α-bromo carbonyls and 1-azadienes, derived from 2-methylenebenzofuran-3(2 H)-ones or 2-methylenebenzo[ b]thiophene-3(2 H)-ones, has been observed in the presence of DABCO and Cs2CO3. These reactions stand in contrast to the common [4 + 1] cyclization reactions of azadienes with the related sulfonium ylides. A range of fused benzofuro[3,2- b]pyridines and benzo[4,5]thieno[3,2- b]pyridines have been efficiently constructed in fair to excellent yields.
