The first highly enantioselective iridium-catalyzed allylic alkylation that provides access to products bearing an allylic all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center has been developed. The reaction utilizes a masked acyl cyanide (MAC) reagent, which enables the one-pot preparation of α-quaternary carboxylic acids, esters, and amides with a high degree of enantioselectivity. The utility of these products is further explored through a series of diverse product transformations.

Various allylic alcohols were carboxylated in the presence of a catalytic amount of PdCl2 and PPh3 using ZnEt2 as a stoichiometric transmetalation agent under a CO2 atmosphere (1atm). This carboxylation proceeded in a highly regioselective manner to afford branched carboxylic acids predominantly. The β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acid thus obtained was successfully converted into an optically active γ-butyrolactone, a known intermediate of (R)-baclofen.
Use of formate salts as a hydride and a Co2 source in PGeP -palladium complex-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of allenes

Use of formate salts as a hydride as well as a CO2 source was achieved in a PGeP-palladium complex-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of allenes through a highly efficient decarboxylation-carboxylation process. This reaction proceeds under mild conditions and provides an alternative strategy for utilizing formate salts as a C1 source.
