3,3-Disubstituted prop-2-enoic acids were selectively prepared in good yields under
mild experimental conditions via palladium-catalysed cross-coupling of 3-substituted
3-iodobut-2-enoic acids with miscellaneous organometallic reagents using dichlorobis(acetonitrile)palladium(II)
as catalyst and DMF as solvent.
