title: Alkynes as activators in the nickel-catalysed addition of organoboronates to aldehydes.
abstract: Alkynes act not as substrates but as co-catalysts in the presence of a nickel catalyst, an organoboronate and an aldehyde to promote the addition reaction between the substrates in combination with H2O.
