Pd(<scp>ii</scp>)-catalyzed decarboxylative allylation and Heck-coupling of arene carboxylates with allylic halides and esters

Abstract

This work demonstrates an alternative method to prepare allylated arenes and aryl-substituted allylic esters via catalytic decarboxylative C-C bond formation using aromatic carboxylic acids and allylic halides and esters.
