Abstract
Abstract Alkenes are valuable synthetic intermediates present in natural products, bioactive compounds, and materials. Palladium‐catalyzed CH olefination reactions have become an attractive alternative to the commonly used Pd‐catalyzed Mizoroki–Heck cross‐coupling since no prefunctionalization of the starting materials is required. Major efforts have been devoted to developing selective, efficient, and general palladium‐catalyzed CH olefination reactions employing directing groups and ligands. Nowadays, the toolbox of palladium‐catalyzed CH olefination reactions is enormous, permitting the olefination of a wide range of substrates at different positions. In this article, we will offer an overview of the most important palladium‐catalyzed CH olefination reactions of arenes and alkanes.
