We report a stereoselective conversion of terminal alkynes to α-chiral carboxylic acids using a nickel-catalyzed domino hydrocarboxylation-transfer hydrogenation reaction. A simple nickel/BenzP* catalyst displayed high activity in both steps of regioselective hydrocarboxylation of alkynes and subsequent asymmetric transfer hydrogenation. The reaction was successfully applied in enantioselective preparation of three nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory profens (>90 % ees) and the chiral fragment of AZD2716.

An efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic I-substituted cyclic β-ketoesters via dynamic kinetic resolution to provide chiral cyclic β-hydroxy esters with three contiguous stereocenters is reported. Using a chiral spiro iridium catalyst (R)-5 (Ir-SpiroSAP), a series of racemic I-Aryl/alkyl substituted cyclic β-ketoesters were hydrogenated to the corresponding chiral cyclic β-hydroxy esters in high yields (84-97%) with good to excellent enantioselectivities (69->99% ee) and cis,cis-selectivities (up to >99:1).

Selective transformation of C-F bonds remains a significant goal in organic chemistry, but C-F insertion of a one-carbon-atom unit has never been established. Herein we report the BF3-catalyzed formal insertion of diazo esters as one-carbon-atom sources into C-F bonds to accomplish one-carbon elongation of benzylic fluorides. A DFT calculation study revealed that the BF3 catalyst could contribute to both C-F bond cleavage and re-formation. This elongation provided α-fluoro-α,β-diaryl esters with a high level of diastereoselectivity. Various benzylic fluorides and diazo esters were applicable. The synthetic utility of this method was demonstrated by the synthesis of a fluoro analogue of a compound that is used as a transient receptor and potential canonical channel inhibitor.
