Abstract

Nickel-catalyzed enantioselective cross-couplings between symmetric cyclic sulfates and aromatic Grignard reagents are described. These reactions are effective with a broad range of substituted cyclic sulfates and deliver products with asymmetric tertiary carbon centers. Mechanistic experiments point to a stereoinvertive SN2-like oxidative addition of a nickel complex to the electrophilic substrate.
