Abstract

Abstract: The first general palladium-catalyzed carbonylative vinylation of aryl halides with olefins in the presence of CO has been developed. Applying a catalyst system consisting of [(cinnamyl) PdCl] 2 and bulky imidazolylphosphine ligand L1 allows for the efficient and selective synthesis of R, β-unsaturated ketones under mild reaction conditions. Starting from easily available aryl halides and olefins, versatile building blocks can be prepared in a ...
