Abstract
In this work, we wish to present a nickel-catalyzed divergent ring-contraction and ring-opening/isomerization reaction of tert-cyclobutanols. The key to control these two different reaction pathways is to choose appropriate boronic acid, where the use of phenylboronic acid and pyrimidin-5-ylboronic acid enables a ring-contraction and ring-opening reaction/isomerization, respectively. Both cyclopropyl aryl methanones and 1-aryl butan-1-ones could be selectively obtained.
