Stereoselective alkyne semihydrogenations are attractive approaches to alkenes, which are key building blocks for synthesis. With regards to the most atom-economic reducing agent dihydrogen (H2), only few catalysts for the challenging E-selective alkyne semihydrogenation have been disclosed, each with a unique substrate scope profile. Here, we show that a commercially available nickel catalyst facilitates the E-selective alkyne semihydrogenation of a wide variety of substituted internal alkynes. This results in a simple and broadly applicable overall protocol to stereoselectively access E-alkenes employing H2, which could serve as a general method for synthesis.

The Pd-catalyzed annulations of ortho-halide-containing benzyl alcohols with alkynes for the synthesis of indenones were achieved in aqueous Triton X-100 micelles with good yields and wide substrate scopes. Moreover, the indenones obtained in this procedure can be further functionalized to form some more synthetic useful derivatives via an environmental-friendly way.
