Abstract
Catalysts generated from Pd2(dba)3 and biphenyl ligands 4 and 7 efficiently promote the coupling of amides and carbamates with unactivated vinyl triflates and tosylates, to provide enamides in good to excellent yields. Key words
enamides - palladium - catalysis - enol triflates - enol tosylates
