The nickel-catalyzed reductive coupling of propargyl alcohols and alkynes proceeds with excellent regiochemical control with an underlying electronic preference that can be supplemented by ligand size effects. The products obtained may be readily converted to substructures that are not directly available by an aldehyde-alkyne reductive coupling. A simple model for how steric and electronic factors are both important in governing regiochemistry in couplings of this type is presented, along with e ...[more]
