title: Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling of carboxylic acids with nitroethane via combination of decarboxylation and dehydrogenation.
abstract: An unexpected coupling reaction of arene carboxylic acid with nitroethane via a combination of decarboxylation and dehydrogenation is described. The method provides exclusively (E)-beta-nitrostyrenes.
