An efficient one-to-one coupling reaction of atmospheric pressure carbon dioxide with 1,3-dienes is realized for the first time through PSiP-pincer type palladium-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation. The reaction is applicable to various 1,3-dienes including easily available chemical feedstock such as 1,3-butadiene and isoprene. This protocol affords a highly useful method for the synthesis of β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives from CO2.
Biosynthesis of C11 and C16 homoterpenes in higher plants; stereo- chemistry of the C-C-bond cleavage reaction

In higher plants the C11 homoterpene 4,8-dimethylnona-1,3,7-triene (1) originates from oxidative degradation of nerolidol (3) or geranylacetone (4). The geometry of the transition state of bond cleavage has been shown to be syn-periplanar, for both 3 and 4 by application of chirally labelled, deuterated precursors to flowers of Magnolia liliiflora nigra or leaves of the Lima bean Phaseolus lunatus. The synthesis of the deuterated, chiral metabolic probes 3 and 8 from nor-farnesene (5), via the enantiomeric epoxides (2S,3R)-6 and ent-6, is described.
(E)-4,8-DIMETHYL-1,3,7-NONATRIENE AND (E,E)-4,8,12-TRIMETHYL-1,3,7,11-TRIDECATETRAENE, TWO UNUSUAL HYDROCARBONS FROM CARDAMOM OIL

The identification of two new natural products, (E)-4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatriene 1 and (E,E)-4,8,12-trimethyl-1,3,7,11-tridecatetraene 3 is reported.These unusual C11 and C16 hydrocarbons were isolated from essential oil of Elettaria cardamomum Maton var. miniscula Burkhill (Zingiberaceae) and their structures confirmed by synthesis.
