Nickel-catalyzed regiodivergent sulfonylarylation of 1,3-enynes to access allenes and dienes.

ABSTRACT: The radical-mediated difunctionalization of 1,3-enynes facilitates rapid access to structurally diverse allenes and dienes. Whereas, owing to the existence of multiple active sites in conjugated 1,3-enynes, regulating selectivity in difunctionalized addition via a single transition-metal-catalyzed radical tandem process remains elusive. Herein, we disclose an intriguing protocol of substrate-controlled nickel-catalyzed regiodivergent sulfonylarylation of 1,3-enynes with the assistance of sulfonyl chlorides and arylboronic acids. This valuable synthetic utility respectively delivers a series of highly functionalized and synthetically challenging allenyl sulfones and dienyl sulfones from fine-tuned 1,3-enynes by one step, which provides a facile approach for complex sulfone-containing
