Abstract
This review introduces the synthetic organic chemical value of α-bromocarbonyl compounds with tertiary carbons. This α-bromocarbonyl compound with a tertiary carbon has been used primarily only as a radical initiator in atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) reactions. However, with the recent development of photo-radical reactions (around 2010), research on the use of α-bromocarbonyl compounds as tertiary alkyl radical precursors became popular (around 2012). As more examples were reported, α-bromocarbonyl compounds were studied not only as radicals but also for their applications in organometallic and ionic reactions. That is, α-bromocarbonyl compounds act as nucleophiles as well as electrophiles. The carbonyl group of α-bromocarbonyl compounds is also attractive because it allows the skeleton to be converted after the reaction, and it is being applied to total synthesis. In our survey until 2022, α-bromocarbonyl compounds can be used to perform a full range of reactions necessary for organic synthesis, including multi-component reactions, cross-coupling, substitution, cyclization, rearrangement, stereospecific reactions, asymmetric reactions. α-Bromocarbonyl compounds have created a new trend in tertiary alkylation, which until then had limited reaction patterns in organic synthesis. This review focuses on how α-bromocarbonyl compounds can be used in synthetic organic chemistry.

Abstract
A family of 4,4'-tBu2-2,2'-bipyridine (tBubpy) ligands with substituents in either the 6-position, 4,4'-tBu2-6-Me-bpy (tBubpyMe), or 6 and 6'-positions, 4,4'-tBu2-6,6'-R2-bpy (tBubpyR2; R = Me, iPr, sBu, Ph, or Mes), was synthesized. These ligands were used to prepare Ni complexes in the 0, I, and II oxidation states. We observed that the substituents in the 6 and 6'-positions of the tBubpy ligand impact the properties of the Ni complexes. For example, bulkier substituents in the 6,6'-positions of tBubpy better stabilized (tBubpyR2)NiICl species and resulted in cleaner reduction from (tBubpyR2)NiIICl2. However, bulkier substituents hindered or prevented coordination of tBubpyR2 ligands to Ni0(cod)2. In addition, by using complexes of the type (tBubpyMe)NiCl2 and (tBubpyR2)NiCl2 as precatalysts for different XEC reactions, we demonstrated that the 6 or 6,6' substituents lead to major differences in catalytic performance. Specifically, while (tBubpyMe)NiIICl2 is one of the most active catalysts reported to date for XEC and can facilitate XEC reactions at room temperature, lower turnover frequencies were observed for catalysts containing tBubpyR2 ligands. A detailed study on the catalytic intermediates (tBubpy)Ni(Ar)I and (tBubpyMe2)Ni(Ar)I revealed several factors that likely contributed to the differences in catalytic activity. For example, whereas complexes of the type (tBubpy)Ni(Ar)I are low spin and relatively stable, complexes of the type (tBubpyMe2)Ni(Ar)I are high-spin and less stable. Further, (tBubpyMe2)Ni(Ar)I captures primary and benzylic alkyl radicals more slowly than (tBubpy)Ni(Ar)I, consistent with the lower activity of the former in catalysis. Our findings will assist in the design of tailor-made ligands for Ni-catalyzed transformations.

Abstract
Because of their various reactivities, propargyl acetates are refined chemical intermediates that are extensively applied in pharmaceutical synthesis. Currently, reactions between propargyl acetates and chlorosilanes may be the most effective method for synthesizing silylallenes. Nevertheless, owing to the adaptability and selectivity of substrates, transition metal catalysis is difficult to achieve. Herein, nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reactions between propargyl acetates and substituted vinyl chlorosilanes for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted silylallenes are described. Therein, metallic zinc is a crucial reductant that effectively enables two electrophilic reagents to selectively construct C(sp2)-Si bonds. Additionally, a Ni-catalyzed reductive mechanism involving a radical process is proposed on the basis of deuteration-labeled experiments.

Abstract
Manganese powder with a suitable potential (, -1.19 V) has never been investigated for the reduction of Au3+ (, 1.00 V). In this study, we have utilized and low pH dependent for the polyethylene glycol stabilized gold nanoprism synthesis by reducing AuCl-4 in the presence of thiol terminated polyethylene glycol as the stabilizing agent. The synthetic methodology for gold nanoprisms has been optimized by pH and Cl- ion combination. Time dependent absorbance studies have been conducted to demonstrate the role of various reaction parameters such as the stabilizing agent, HCl concentration, temperature, and Mn metal. The synthesized gold nanoprism has been further utilized as a seed for nucleic acid and selected amino acid mediated edge and surface growth, respectively.

Abstract
Herein, we provide a novel method for the synthesis of 1,3-dibenzenesulfonylpolysulfane (DBSPS), which further reacts with boronic acids to afford thiosulfonates. Commercially available boron compounds greatly expanded the range of thiosulfonates. Experimental and theoretical mechanistic investigations suggested that DBSPS could provide both thiosulfone fragments and dithiosulfone fragments, but the generated aryl dithiosulfonates were unstable and decomposed into thiosulfonates.

Abstract
The catalysis by a π-allyl-Co/Ni complex has drawn significant attention recently due to its distinct reactivity in reductive Co/Ni-catalyzed allylation reactions. Despite significant success in reaction development, the critical oxidative addition mechanism to form the π-allyl-Co/Ni complex remains unclear. Herein, we present a study to investigate this process with four catalysis-relevant complexes: Co(MeBPy)Br2, Co(MePhen)Br2, Ni(MeBPy)Br2, and Ni(MePhen)Br2. Enabled by an electroanalytical platform, Co(I)/Ni(I) species were found responsible for the oxidative addition of allyl acetate. Kinetic features of different substrates were characterized through linear free-energy relationship (Hammett-type) studies, statistical modeling, and a DFT computational study. In this process, a coordination-ionization-type transition state was proposed, sharing a similar feature with Pd(0)-mediated oxidative addition in Tsuji-Trost reactions. Computational and ligand structural analysis studies support this mechanism, which should provide key information for next-generation catalyst development.
