The cascade carbo-carbonylation of unactivated alkenes catalyzed by an organocatalyst and a transition metal catalyst: a facile approach to gamma-diketones and gamma-carbonyl aldehydes from arylalkenes under air.
A novel cascade carbo-carbonylation reaction of unactivated arylalkenes with ketones or aldehydes was catalyzed by an organocatalyst and a transition metal catalyst via a SOMO-enamine under air, affording a simple approach to gamma-diketones and gamma-carbonyl aldehydes.
