A constant-current electrochemical method for reducing catalytic nickel complexes in sp2-sp3 cross-electrophile coupling reactions has been developed. The electrochemical reduction provides reliable nickel catalyst activation and turnover and offers a tunable parameter for reaction optimization, in contrast to more standard

Ligands are essential for controlling the reactivity and selectivity of reactions catalysed by transition metals. Access to large phosphine ligand libraries has become an essential tool for the application of metal-catalysed reactions industrially, but these existing libraries are not well

Despite their importance, the synthesis of alkylated heterocycles from the cross-coupling of Lewis basic nitrogen heteroaryl halides with alkyl halides remains a challenge. We report here a general solution to this challenge enabled by a new collection of ligands based
