Significance
A palladium-catalyzed direct cross-coupling between alkenes and acrylates is reported. The scope is broad and the E/Z selectivities are good, although the yields are moderate to low. Overall, this is an efficient method for synthesizing dienoates using simple olefins and mild reaction conditions.
