Abstract
AbstractA ligand-free palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of vinyl iodides with arylboronic acids, permitting the synthesis of chalcones and α-branched enones, has been established. This reaction proceeds smoothly at ambient pressure and temperature, and works well even with a substoichiometric amount of base. Importantly, this mild, efficient, and operationally simple protocol is suitable for the late-stage functionalization of an epiandrosterone-derived complex molecule.
