Abstract:
Ni-catalyzed electroreductive olefin perfluoroalkylation affords both monomeric and dimeric products depending on the reaction media. Recycling of the catalyst can be achieved by immobilization of a (bpy)NiBr2 complex on silica nanoparticles decorated with anchoring amino-groups. Switching the homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts is found to be one more factor to control the product ratio. This catalytic technique is both green and atom economical and combines the advantages of nanoheterogeneous catalysis and electrocatalysis.

Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
