Palladium(0)-catalyzed carbonylation of allyl phosphates and allyl acetates. Selective synthesis of β,γ-unsaturated esters

The mechanism of transition metal catalyzed carbonylation of allyl halides: A theoretical investigation

“…Tsuji and co-workers [31] reported that a smooth palladium catalyzed carbonylation can be accomplished for allylic carbonates. Murahashi and co-workers [32] described similar results for allyl phosphates and allyl acetates. Then, different reaction conditions and different techniques were proposed by several researchers to improve the palladiumcatalyzed carbonylation of allylic systems [33][34][35][36].…”

A theoretical investigation of the oxidation states of palladium complexes and their role in the carbonylation reaction

“…As a consequence, during the last three decades, several different reaction conditions and techniques have been proposed to improve the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of allylic systems [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][71][72][73].…”

The mechanism for palladium catalyzed carbonylation of cinnamyl chloride

“…The palladium catalyzed alkoxycarbonylation of allylic substrates is a powerful tool in synthetic organic chemistry to form b-c unsaturated esters (Scheme 1) [1][2][3][4][5][6]. The reaction can be carried out under mild conditions with high atom economy and thus provides a viable alternative for traditional, stoichiometric routes.…”
