title: Nickel-catalysed addition of organoboronates to 1,3-dienes.
abstract: Aryl- and alkenylboronates were found to add to 1,3-dienes in the presence of a catalytic amount of bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)nickel, where a proton source in combination with a solvent considerably controls the regioselectivity.
