Aliphatic linear and α-branched aldehydes efficiently undergo arylation at the α-position upon treatment with aryl bromides using an appropriate palladium catalyst system that is capable of overcoming aldol condensation of the substrates.

Three′s company: The selective α‐arylation and α‐arylativeesterification of linear and branched aldehydes is reported for a variety of bromoarenes. The acylation of arylbromides can be achieved with linear aldehydes (see scheme). All these transformations were performed with a single [(N‐heterocyclic carbene)Pd] catalyst through adjustment of the stoichiometry of the reagents and the appropriate
Construction of Acyclic All‐Carbon Quaternary Stereocenters and 1,3‐Nonadjacent Stereoelements via Organo/Metal Dual Catalyzed Asymmetric Allenylic Substitution of Aldehydes
A novel synthetic strategy for the asymmetric allenylic substitution of aldehydes, which enables the construction of allene-containing acyclic all-carbonquaternarystereocenters and 1,3-nonadjacent stereoelements, has been reported.
