Nickel-Catalyzed Stereoselective Arylboration of Unactivated Alkenes

A Ni-catalyzed method for arylboration is disclosed. The method allows for highly stereoselective arylboration of unactivated alkenes. The reactions utilize a simple Ni-catalyst and work with a broad range of alkenes and aryl bromides. The products represent useful intermediates for chemical synthesis due to the versatility of the C–B bond. Preliminary mechanistic details of the method are also disclosed.
