PALLADIUM-CATALYZED DESULFONYLATIVE COUPLING OF ARYLSULFONYL CHLORIDES WITH ACRYLATE ESTERS UNDER SOLID-LIQUID PHASE TRANSFER CONDITIONS

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)95294-8

The reaction of arylsulfonyl chlorides with acrylate esters in the presence of a catalytic amount of PdCl2(PhCN)2 under solid-liquid phase transfer conditions gives the corresponding 3-aryl-2-propenoates in good yields.
