(Chemical Equation Presented) Head 'em up, move 'em out, aldehyde! A catalytic transformation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids into aldehydes through a hydroformylation-decarboxylation process has been developed (see scheme; Do = donor ligand, FG1 and FG2 = complementary functional groups). The reaction proceeds at mild conditions, tolerates many functional groups, and liberates CO2 as the only stoichiometric by-product.
