title: Synergistic Pd/enamine catalysis: a strategy for the C-H/C-H oxidative coupling of allylarenes with unactivated ketones.
abstract: By combining catalytic nucleophilic enamine activation with Pd-catalyzed C-H activation of allylarenes, the first oxidative allylic alkylation of unactivated ketones was achieved. Mechanistically, the Pd-catalyzed allylic C-H activation and proline-catalyzed ketone nucleophilic activation worked synergistically for the oxidative cross-coupling between allylarenes and unactivated ketones.
