Syntheses of 1,3- and 1,4-Dienes by the Oxidative Coupling of 1-Alkenylstannanes and 2-Alkenylstannanes in the Presence of Palladium Catalyst

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/cl.1987.5

Treatment of 1-alkenylstannanes with ^tBuOOH in the presence of palladium catalyst gives 1,3-dienes.Cross coupling reaction between 1-alkenylstannanes and 2-alkenylstannanes provides 1,4-dienes selectively in good yields.
