Abstract

Abstract Catalytic C-phenylation of methyl acrylate to methyl cinnamate with the Ph 4 SbX complexes (X= F, Cl, Br, OH, OAc, O 2 CEt) in the presence of the palladium compounds PdCl 2, Pd (OAc) 2, Pd 2 (dba) 3, Pd (Ph 3 P) 2 Cl 2, and Pd (dppf) Cl 2 (dba is dibenzylideneacetone and dppf is bis (diphenylphosphinoferrocene)) was studied in organic solvents (MeCN, THF, DMF, MeOH, and AcOH). The highest yield of methyl cinnamate (73 ...
