Abstract

An intermolecular, palladium-catalyzed addition of the α-CH bond of monocarbonyl and 1, 3- dicarbonyl compounds to dienes has been developed, and an exploration of the scope of these reactions with a broad range of carbonyl compounds and nitriles was conducted. The combination of CpPd (allyl) and the commercially available 1, 3-bis (dicyclohexylphosphino) propane (DCyPP) catalyzed the 1: 1 addition of the CH bonds of these substrates to ...
