- Tetraphosphine/palladium-catalyzed Heck reactions of aryl halides with disubstituted alkenes
-
cis,cis,cis-1,2,3,4-Tetrakis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)cyclopentane/ [PdCl(C3H5)]2 efficiently catalyses the Heck reaction of disubstituted alkenes such as methyl crotonate, ethyl cinnamate, methyl methacrylate or α-methylstyrene with a variety of aryl halides. In the presence of 1,2-disubstituted alkenes the stereoselectivities of the reactions strongly depend on the substituents of the alkenes. Selectivities up to 97% in favor of E-isomers can be obtained for the addition to methyl crotonate. With the 1,1-disubstituted alkenes methyl methacrylate or α-methylstyrene mixtures of products are obtained.
