Selective Pd-Catalyzed Oxidative Coupling of Anilides with Olefins through C−H Bond Activation at Room Temperature

Using a high-throughput experimentation approach we found a selective and mild Pd-catalyzed oxidative coupling reaction between anilide derivatives and acrylates that occurs through ortho C-H bond activation. The reaction is carried out in an acidic environment and occurs even at room temperature wi... View More
