A palladium-catalyzed domino Heck cyclization/carbonylative Hiyama-Denmark cross-coupling reaction between alkene-tethered aryl iodides and silylcarboxylic acids is presented. This reaction proceeds well without toxic carbon monoxide (CO) gas and has good functional group tolerance, providing an alternative access to carbonyl-containing oxindoles. In this transformation, silylcarboxylic acids play a dual role as a CO source and a nucleophile.
