Abstract

Diphenylantimony chloride and phenylantimony dichloride, mainly the former, react smoothly with alkenes in acetonitrile at rt in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd (OAc) 2 under air to afford the corresponding phenylated alkenes (Heck-type reaction). The addition of AgOAc as reoxidant is not necessary for this reaction in sharp contrast to similar reactions using triarylstibines. The oxygen absorption is confirmed in this catalytic reaction and the ...
