The development of a cross-coupling method for the regioselective β-alkenylation of 2,5-cyclohexadiene carboxylic acid derivatives to form ortho-alkenylarenes through in situ decarboxylation and aromatization is described. The carboxylic acid functionality is used as a traceless directing group for efficient and mild β-alkenylation. The modular sequence comprises a reductive Birch α-alkylation, ionic ?-alkylation followed by a Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative β-alkenylation with subsequent aromatization resulting in an overall three-fold ipso-para-ortho functionalization of readily accessed benzoic acid derivatives. Efficient synthesis of various alkyl-alkenylarenes under mild conditions in moderate to excellent yields is presented.

A novel palladium system for an intermolecular addition of formamides to alkynes has been developed. The reaction of formamides with internal alkynes in the presence of a palladium catalyst with acid chloride as an additive afforded (E)-α,β-unsaturated amides regio- and stereoselectively. The same catalyst system realized the first example of the addition of formamides to terminal alkynes giving the corresponding α,β-unsaturated amides bearing a terminal methylene moiety as major products. The present reaction was widely applicable to substrates with various functionalities. This method also could be applied to the reaction of N,N-disubstituted formamides with norbornene. A hydridopalladium species would be formed as a key intermediate with in situ generated HCl under the reaction conditions.
