RESUMO
In recent years, remarkable progress has been described in the development of methods that simultaneously control vicinal stereochemistry, wherein both stereochemical elements are central chirality; in contrast, methods that control central and axial chirality are comparatively rare. Herein we report that a chiral nickel catalyst achieves the enantioconvergent and diastereoselective coupling of racemic secondary alkyl electrophiles with prochiral 1,3-enynes (in the presence of a hydrosilane) to generate chiral tetrasubstituted allenes that bear an adjacent stereogenic center. A carbon-carbon and a carbon-hydrogen bond are formed in this process, which provides good stereoselectivity and is compatible with an array of functional groups.
