Synthesis of ( E )-prop-1-ene-1,3-diyldibenzene derivatives via direct decarboxylative coupling of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids with benzyl boronic acid pinacol ester
The first copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between benzyl boronic acid pinacol ester and α,β-unsaturatedcarboxylicacids was described. The ready availability of the starting materials and excellent E selectivity make this protocol a safe and operationally convenient strategy for the efficient synthesis of (E)-prop-1-ene-1,3-diyldibenzene derivatives.

A new method for the preparation of (E)-β-alkylstyrene derivatives has been developed via the addition of a benzyl or alkyl radical to β-nitrostyrenes using di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) as the oxidant in the presence of Cu powder catalyst. The C–H bonds in various toluene derivatives, ethers, alkanes and alcohols were successfully converted into C–C bonds to yield the corresponding (E)-β-alkylstyrene
Allylic arylation of cinnamyl acetates with sodium tetraphenylborate using 0.002 mol% of a Bedford-type palladacycle catalyst is described. The developed methodology is applicable for a wide range of cinnamyl acetates furnishing excellent yields of up to 93%. Notably all reactions proceed smoothly under mild reaction conditions in water under an air atmosphere.

Allylic carbonates were efficiently cross-coupled with triarylbismuthsunderpalladiumcatalysis. Using the optimized protocol, arylations of various allylic carbonates were carried out with triarylbismuths to afford high yields of 1,3-disubstituted propenes in regio- and chemo-selective manner. Triarylbismuths were employed as multi-coupling atom-efficient organometallic nucleophiles in sub-stoichiometric
