ChemInform Abstract: Selective Synthesis of Allenes and Alkynes Through Ligand‐Controlled, Palladium‐Catalyzed Decarboxylative Hydrogenolysis of Propargylic Formates.

Abstract

AbstractThe linker chain length in the ligand decides on the formation of the allenes or propargyl derivatives, with the former obtained predominantly with the shorter chain (dppe) and the latter being preferred using Ph2P‐(CH2)6‐PPh2 as a ligand.
