An olefination via ruthenium-catalyzed decarbonylative addition of aldehydes to terminal alkynes.
A ruthenium-catalyzed olefination via decarbonylative addition of aldehydes and alkynes has been developed. A strong electronic effect and high chemoselectivity between aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes were observed in this reaction.
