Three-component vicinal-diarylation of alkenes via direct transmetalation of arylboronic acids.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report three-component vicinal-diarylation of non-conjugated alkenes initiated by transmetalation of arylboronic acids, which provides complementary access to ?,?-diaryl carbonyl compounds. We have also screened a large number of chiral ligands for developing an enantioselective version of this reaction and obtained the preliminary results (up to 79?:?21 e.r.). Notably, the methodology developed herein represents the first three component syn-vicinal-dicarbofunctionalization of non-conjugated alkenes involving palladium catalysis.
