Preliminary studies of the elementary steps involved in the reaction of a chiral methyl carbonyl bioxazoline Pd(II) complex with aromatic olefins and CO have allowed development of a new enantioselective catalytic carbonylation process, leading to g-ketoester derivatives with high yield and good enantiomeric excess. The intermediate palladacycle complexes have been isolated and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Factors that govern the stereoselectivity of the olefin carbonylation process are discussed.

Abstract
Preliminary studies of the elementary steps involved in the reaction of a chiral methyl carbonyl bioxazoline Pd(II) complex with aromatic olefins and CO have allowed development of a new enantioselective catalytic carbonylation process, leading to g-ketoester derivatives with high yield and good enantiomeric excess. The intermediate palladacycle complexes have been isolated and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Factors that govern the stereoselectivity of the olefin carbonylation process are discussed.File in questo prodotto:
