The products corresponding to the reactions of arenes and γ-carbonyl cations may be obtained by a one-pot, bicatalytic process involving InCl 3-catalyzed arene allylation and cross metathesis with electron-deficient alkenes. The process is successful with electronically neutral and electron-rich arenes, and modestly Lewis basic donor groups are tolerated with an increase in InCl3 loading from 10 mol% to 15 mol%, and in one case, 20 mol%.

A highly selective and general palladium catalyst for the oxidative heck reaction of electronically nonbiased olefins

A general, highly selective oxidative Heck reaction is reported. The reaction is high-yielding under mild conditions without the need for base or high temperatures, and the selectivity is excellent, without the requirement for electronically biased olefins or other specific directing groups. A preliminary mechanistic investigation suggests that the unusually high selectivity may be due to the catalyst's sensitivity to C-H bond strength in the selectivity-determining β-hydride elimination step.
