Abstract

Abstract The three-component, palladium/norbornene-catalysed reaction of 1, haloamides 2 and properly substituted olefins 3 performed in DMF/water at 80 C selectively gave 5 and 6 through three-and four-bond-forming reactions, respectively. The presence of water was crucial to obtain products in fair to good yields.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2009)
