Traditional cross-couplings require stoichiometric organometallic reagents. A novel nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between aldehydes and aryl halides via hydrazone intermediates has been developed, merging the Wolff-Kishner reduction and the classical cross-coupling reactions. Aromatic aldehydes, aryl iodides and aryl bromides are especially effective in this new cross-coupling chemistry.

We have developed an unprecedented Pd-catalyzed formal hydroalkylation of alkynes with hydrazones, which are generated in situ from naturally abundant aldehydes, as both alkylation reagents and hydrogen donors. The hydroalkylation proceeds with high regio- and stereoselectivity to form (Z)-alkenes, which are more difficult to generate compared to (E)-alkenes. The reaction is compatible with a wide range of functional groups, including hydroxy, ester, ketone, nitrile, boronic ester, amine, and halide groups. Furthermore, late-stage modifications of natural products and pharmaceutical derivatives exemplify its unique chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, and synthetic applicability. Mechanistic studies indicate the possible involvement of Pd-hydride intermediates.

The addition of organometallic reagents to unsaturated bonds is one of the most powerful tools for carbon–carbon bond formations. Alkylation through organometallic reagents requires stoichiometric quantity of metal and tedious anhydrous operation in most cases. Here, we report “umpolung” nucleophilic additions of hydrazones to Michael acceptors, carbonyls and imines in water. Under the catalysis of ruthenium(II), the addition reactions could be carried out in pure water to provide various alkylation products in moderate to good yields.

Herein, we report a ruthenium-catalyzed redox-neutral α-alkylation of unsaturated alcohols based on a synergistic relay process involving olefin isomerization (chain walking) and umpolung hydrazone addition, which takes advantage of the interaction between the two rather inefficient individual reaction steps to enable an efficient overall process. This transformation shows the compatibility of hydrazone-type “carbanions” and active protons in a one-pot reaction, and at the same time achieves the first Grignard-type nucleophilic addition using olefinic alcohols as latent carbonyl groups, providing a higher yield of the corresponding secondary alcohol than the classical hydrazone addition to aldehydes does. A broad scope of unsaturated alcohols and hydrazones, including some complex structures, can be successfully employed in this reaction, which shows the versatility of this approach and its suitability as an alternative, efficient means for the generation of secondary and tertiary alcohols.
