Abstract
Allyl alcohols can be efficiently carbonylated to beta,gamma-unsaturat ed acids or esters in dimethylacetamide (DMA) or MeOH/DMA mixtures und er relatively mild conditions (80 degrees C, 50-100 atm) using a simpl e catalytic system consisting of palladium iodide in the presence of t hiourea as ligand. In the case of but-2-ene-1,4-diol, selectivation to methyl 5-hydroxypent-3-enoate, 3,6-dihydro-1,2-pyrone or dimethyl hex -3-enedioate may be achieved.
