Perfect to a THT! Screening a diverse library of thioether ligands led to the discovery of tetrahydrothiophene (THT) as a highly reactive and selective ligand for Pd-catalyzed allylic C-H oxidation reactions (see scheme). This novel ligand system provides some of the highest reported yields for the formation of (E)-linear allylic acetates through allylic C-H activation chemistry (BQ = 1,4-benzoquinone). Copyright
