Herein, we disclose a Ni-catalyzed 1,1-difunctionalization of unactivated terminal alkenes that enables the incorporation of two different heteroatom motifs across an olefin backbone, thus streamlining the access to α-aminoboronic acid derivatives from simple precursors. The method is characterized by its simplicity and generality across a wide number of coupling counterparts.
