Abstract
We report the development of a method to diastereoselectively access tetrasubstituted alkenes via nickel-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings of enol tosylates and boronic acid esters. Either diastereomeric product was selectively accessed from a mixture of enol tosylate starting material diastereomers in a convergent reaction by judicious choice of the ligand and reaction conditions. A similar protocol also enabled a divergent synthesis of each product isomer from diastereomerically pure enol tosylates. Notably, high-throughput optimization of the monophosphine ligands was guided by chemical space analysis of the kraken library to ensure a diverse selection of ligands was examined. Stereoelectronic analysis of the results provided insight into the requirements for reactive and selective ligands in this transformation. The synthetic utility of the optimized catalytic system was then probed in the stereoselective synthesis of various tetrasubstituted alkenes, with yields up to 94% and diastereomeric ratios up to 99:1 Z/E and 93:7 E/Z observed. Moreover, a detailed computational analysis and experimental mechanistic studies provided key insights into the nature of the underlying isomerization process impacting selectivity in the cross-coupling.

Abstract
The rapid cis-trans isomerization of α-anionic stilbene was regioselectively controlled by using flow microreactors, and its reaction with various electrophiles was conducted. The reaction time was precisely controlled within milliseconds to seconds at -50 °C to selectively give the cis- or trans-isomer in high yields. This synthetic method in flow was well-applied to synthesize precursors of commercial drug compound, (E)- and (Z)-tamoxifen with high regioselectivity and productivity.

Abstract
A one-pot, base-catalyzed, tandem grinding process involving carrying out aldol condensation and Michael addition in sequence to produce 3,4,5-trisubstituted isoxazoles from 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitroisoxazole, aromatic aldehydes and activated methylene compounds has been developed. In the presence of 10 mol% of pyrrolidine, aldol condensations of 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitroisoxazole with various aromatic aldehydes were performed with 3-10 minutes of grinding to provide 5-styryl-3-methyl-4-nitroisoxazoles in good to quantitative yields without further purification. Then, Michael additions between 5-styryl-3-methyl-4-nitroisoxazoles and activated methylene compounds (including ethyl 2-nitroacetate and alkyl 2-cyanoacetates) were carried out in the presence of 10 mol% of Et3N in the same mortar with 3-5 minutes of continuous grinding to produce 3,4,5-trisubstituted isoxazoles in good to excellent yields.
