L. Alcaraz et Rjk. Taylor, EFFICIENT CONDITIONS FOR THE PALLADIUM(II) MEDIATED COUPLING OF ORGANOSTANNANES - THE SYNTHESIS OF 1,3-DIENES, 1,4-DIENES, 1,3-DIYNES AND BIPHENYLS, Synlett, (7), 1997, pp. 791
Convenient conditions are described for the preparation of 1,3-dienes
by vinylstannane homocoupling using palladium(II)catalysis with oxygen
(or air) for Pd(0)/Pd(II) reoxidation; related home-couplings, and cr
oss-coupling reactions with allylstannane, are used to obtain 1,3-diyn
es, biaryls and 1,4-dienes.
