✦ Synopsis

New polyenes are formed in protic media via nickel catalyzed cooligomerization of butadiene with methyl acrylate. High activities are achieved with amino-phosphinite ligands in aprotic solvent. Using a deuterium labeled ligand, the presence of the NH group of the ligand is shown to be the key point for the proton transfer involved in the mechanism.
