Oxidative rearrangement of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes to ketones
Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Qiang Feng
The Wacker process, which is widely used to convert monosubstituted alkenes into the corresponding methyl ketones, is thought to proceed through a PdII/Pd0 catalytic cycle involving a b-hydride elimination step. This mechanistic scenario is inapplicable to ...
2023Modular Synthesis of Benzocyclobutenes via Pd(II)-Catalyzed Oxidative [2+2] Annulation of Arylboronic Acids with Alkenes
Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Takuji Fujii, Simone Gallarati
Benzocyclobutenes (BCBs) are highly valuable compounds in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and materials science. However, catalytic modular synthesis of functionalized BCBs from easily accessible starting materials remains limited. We report herein ...
