The development of a cross-coupling method for the regioselective β-alkenylation of 2,5-cyclohexadiene carboxylic acid derivatives to form ortho-alkenylarenes through in situ decarboxylation and aromatization is described. The carboxylic acid functionality is used as a traceless directing group for efficient and mild β-alkenylation. The modular sequence comprises a reductive Birch α-alkylation, ionic ?-alkylation followed by a Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative β-alkenylation with subsequent aromatization resulting in an overall three-fold ipso-para-ortho functionalization of readily accessed benzoic acid derivatives. Efficient synthesis of various alkyl-alkenylarenes under mild conditions in moderate to excellent yields is presented.

A highly stereoselective and efficient transition-metal-free semihydrogenation of internal alkynes to E-alkenes using cheap and green water as hydrogen donor is described. The reactions are conducted under convenient conditions and provide products in good to excellent yields, with broad substrate scope, including a variety of diarylalkynes.
