The origins of regioselectivity in Ni-catalyzed alkene hydrofunctionalizations were computationally investigated by using energy decomposition analysis. The results indicate the Markovnikov selectivity with aryl-substituted alkenes is favored due to the stabilizing charge transfer effect, and the anti-Markovnikov selectivity with alkyl-substituted alkenes is favored because of the destabilizing Pauli repulsion effect.
通过使用能量分解分析,计算研究了 Ni 催化烯烃氢官能化反应中区域选择性的起源。结果表明,由于稳定的电荷转移效应,芳基取代烯烃具有 Markovnikov 选择性,而由于不稳定的 Pauli 排斥效应,烷基取代烯烃具有反-Markovnikov 选择性。
