Abstract

Ligand-and Base-Free Pd(II)-Catalyzed Controlled Switching Between Oxidative Heck and Conjugate Addition Reactions. -Switching between oxidative Heck and conjugated addition reaction on cyclic alkenes is achieved by a simple switch of the solvent. Both reactions are ligand-and base-free and tolerant to air and moisture. -(WALKER, S. E.; BOEHNKE, J.; GLEN, P. E.; LEVEY, S.; PATRICK, L.; JORDAN-HORE, J. A.; LEE*, A.-L.; Org.
