Stereoselective Syntheses of Conjugated 1-Phenylthio-1,3-alkadienes and 1,3,5-Alkatrienes through the Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reaction of (E)- or (Z)-1-Alkenylboronates with (E)- or (Z)-2-Bromo-1-phenylthio-1-alkenes

1-Phenylthio-1,3-alkadienes and 1,3,5-alkatrienes are obtained in excellent yields stereo- and regioselectively by the cross-coupling between 1-alkenyl or 1,3-alkadienyl-1,3,2-benzodioxaboroles and (E)- or (Z)-2-bromo-1-phenylthio-1-alkenes in the presenc
