title: Pd-catalyzed C=C double-bond formation by coupling of N-tosylhydrazones with benzyl halides.
abstract: Pd-catalyzed reaction of N-tosylhydrazones with benzyl halides affords di- and trisubstituted olefins in high yields with excellent stereoselectivity. This coupling reaction is supposed to proceed through a migratory insertion of Pd carbene species.
