Nickel-Catalyzed Hydrocarboxylation of Terminal Unactivated Alkenes: Formation of Branched Carboxylic Acids and Competing Catalyst Deactivation from CO2 Reduction to CO
{{output}}
The reductive coupling of CO2 and alkenes represents a compelling strategy for the synthesis of carboxylic acids. In this study, we show that Ni(OAc)2 and 6,6'-Me2bpy (dmbpy) catalyzes hydrocarboxylation of terminal unactivated alkenes to afford the branched ... ...
