Organic Syntheses by Means of Noble Metal Compounds. VIII.¹ Catalytic Carbonylation of Allylic Compounds with Palladium Chloride

Polymer precursors from catalytic reactions of natural oils

“…The first palladium catalysts developed in the 1960's were shown to be active at much lower temperature (about 100℃) than cobalt catalysts. [89][90][91][92][93] The introduction of phosphine ligands into the palladium system by Drent and co-workers in the 1980's led to a major progress in the field of alkoxycarbonylation. 94 The reader will now have an overview of a diphosphine ligand that shows outstanding activities towards the alkoxycarbonylation reaction.…”

Usage of the Carboxylate Leaving Group in Transition-metal-catalyzed Cross-coupling and Related Reactions

“…22 The C C double bond of the allylic substrate coordinates to the low valence metal atom. 23 This leads to the selective cleavage and the formation of (π allyl)metal complex A, which is in general electrophilic.…”

Direct Synthesis of an α,ω‐Diester from 2,7‐Octadienol as Bulk Feedstock in Three Tandem Catalytic Steps

“…[6] Palladium-catalysede ther formationa nd ether carbonylation of allylic alcohols to obtain an ester has already been merged into at andemc atalytic process. Therein, the allylic alcoholi s converted with an alcohol into an allylic ether,t hen the ether undergoes an ether carbonylation reactionw ith carbon mon-oxide yieldinga nb,g-unsaturated ester.T his tandem method was developedin1 964 by Tsuji et al, [7] by converting allyl alcohol into the corresponding b,g-unsaturated ethyl ester in 42 % yield in ethanol. However,t heir main focus was on the more successful conversion of allyl chloride and allyl acetate into the same product.…”
