Efficient synthesis of tetrasubstituted 2,3-allenoates and preliminary studies on bioactivities
Keyword(s):
A general and highly efficient straightforward protocol for the preparation of tetrasubstituted 2,3-allenoates through a palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of 3-alkoxycarbonyl propargylic carbonates and boronic acids with commercially available tri(o-tolyl)phosphine as a ligand has been developed.
