Abstract

A silver-triggered heterogeneous Pd-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation has been developed. This heterogeneous process exhibits high efficiency and good recyclability, and was utilized for the one-pot construction of polycyclic compounds with multiple chiral centers. AgOTf was used to remove chloride ions in the heterogeneous catalyst Pd-AmP-CNC, thereby generating highly active PdII , which results in high efficiency of the heterogeneous catalytic system.

Keywords: carbonylation; heterogeneous catalysis; palladium; polycyclic compound; silver.
