Formal hydrochromation of an alkyne leading to a 1-substituted ethenylchromium reagent is accomplished by addition of the alkyne and water to a mixture of low-valent chromium(II), a catalytic amount of nickel(II), and triphenylphosphine in DMF.

Treatment of a mixture of a terminal alkyne and an aldehyde with CrCl(2) and a catalytic amount of NiCl(2) and triphenylphosphine in the presence of water in DMF at 25 degrees C gives a 1,2-disubstituted allylicalcohol regioselectively.
Halogen-magnesium exchange of various aryl halides is achieved with a magnesium ate complex at low temperatures; Tributylmagnesate ((Bu3MgLi)-Bu-n) induces facile iodine-magnesium exchange at -78 degreesC. Dibutylisopropylmagnesate ((PrBu2MgLi)-Pr-i-Bu-n) is more reactive than (Bu3MgLi)-Bu-n, and this reagent accomplishes selective bromine-magnesium exchange at -78 degreesC. This procedure is utilized for the preparation of various polyfunctionalized arylmagnesium species. The exchange of alkenyl halides using this method proceeds with retention of configuration of the double bond.
