Abstract

Abstract We have demonstrated that intramolecular hypercoordination of a carboxylic acid is a powerful activation strategy for the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of trialkyl (vinyl) silanes and trialkyl (vinyl) germanes under fluoride-free conditions. Z-β-Trialkylsilyl- and Z-β-trialkylgermylacrylic acids, synthesized stereoselectively by olefination with ynolates, are highly stable and useful reagents for cross-coupling with a variety of aryl ...
