Versatile chemoselectivity in Ni-catalyzed multiple bond carbonylations and cyclocarbonylations in CO(2)-expanded liquids

Chem Commun (Camb). 2009 Aug 21:(31):4723-5. doi: 10.1039/b908253k. Epub 2009 Jun 29.

Abstract

Selective mono or double carbonylations could be achieved by using CO(2)-expanded liquids in [2 + 2 + 1] carbonylative reactions of alkenes or acetylenes with allyl bromides catalyzed by Ni(i).
