A generally applicable Pd-catalyzed protocol for the β-C(sp3)?H arylation of propionic acid and related α-branched aliphatic acids is reported. Enabled by the use of N-acetyl-β-alanine as ligand our protocol delivers a broad range of arylation products. Notably, the highly challenging substrate, propionic acid, which lacks any acceleration through the Thorpe–Ingold effect, can be employed as substrate with synthetically useful yields. Furthermore, the scalability and synthetic applicability of the protocol are demonstrated.
Juvenile hormone mimics

Insect populations are controlled by treating an immature form of the insect with a novel compound possessing juvenile hormone-like activity. Such a compound is one having the formula EQU1 wherein Y is thienyl, phenyl or substituted phenyl. For example, 9-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-2,6-nonadiene exhibits very good activity.
