A catalyst system consisting of Pd(PPh3)4 and P(pTol)3 was found to effectively promote the intermolecular decarboxylative coupling of α-oxocarboxylic acids with diallyl carbonate to give α,β-unsaturated ketones. The key advantage of the new reaction protocol is that preformation of the allyl esters is not required. The reaction is believed to proceed via phosphane-mediated decarboxylation of the α-oxocarboxylates, leading to acyl anion equivalents that are allylated within the coordination sphere of the palladium catalyst. Under the reaction conditions, the double bond then migrates into conjugation with the carbonyl group. Copyright
Synthesis of α,β-unsaturated ketones by Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative allylation of α-oxocarboxylates

A palladium/p-tolylphosphine system has been developed that catalyzes the extrusion of carbon dioxide from α-oxocarboxylic acid allyl esters, leading to α,β-unsaturated ketones (see scheme). The palladium complex activates the substrate and mediates the carbon-carbon bond formation to give allyl ketones, and subsequent double bond shift to the α,β position. The actual decarboxylation step with formation of the acyl nucleophile is promoted by phosphine.
