Formic acid is efficiently used as a C1 source to directly carboxylate allylic alcohols in the presence of a low loading of palladium catalyst and acetic anhydride as additive to afford β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acids with excellent chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity. The reaction proceeds through a carbonylation process with in situ-generated carbon monoxide under mild conditions, avoiding the use of high-pressure gaseous CO. A bisphosphine ligand with a large bite angle (4,5-bis{diphenylphosphino}-9,9-dimethylxanthene, Xantphos) was found to be uniquely effective for this transformation. The regio- and stereoconvergence of this reaction is ascribed to the thermodynamically favored isomerization of the allylic electrophile in the presence of the palladium catalyst.

The invention provides a method for preparing a beta, gamma-unsaturated carboxylic acid compound. The method comprises the steps of making an allylic alcohol compound of a formula 1 or a formula 2 react with formic acid in the presence of a palladium catalyst, a phosphorous ligand, acid anhydride and an organic solvent to obtain the beta, gamma-unsaturated carboxylic acid compound of a formula 3 or formula 4, wherein R1, R2 and R3 are defined in the description. Formic acid is utilized as a carboxylation reagent, and the beta, gamma-unsaturated carboxylic acid compound is low in price, safe, stable and low in toxicity; the yield is high, the operation is simple, and the economy is high; compared with an existing compounding method, the use of toxic gas carbon monoxide and/or an equivalent quantity of reactive metal reagents is avoided, and the method meets requirements for environment-friendly chemistry; in addition, the dose of catalysts is small, the reaction condition is mild, the reactant is high in conversion rate and product yield, and the method has a very good industrial prospect.

STATs are transcription factors acting as intracellular signaling after stimulation with cytokines, growth factors and hormones. STAT5 is also constitutively active in many forms of cancers, including chronic myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia and Hodgkin's lymphoma. Recently, literature reported that the neuroleptic drug pimozide inhibits STAT5 phosphorylation inducing apoptosis in CML cells. We undertook an investigation from pimozide structure, obtaining simple derivatives with cytotoxic and STAT5-inhibitory activity, two of them markedly more potent than pimozide.
