The Pd-catalyzed addition of carbon monoxide and carbon tetrachloride to 1-octene gave coadduct [alkyl 2-(2,2,2-trichloroethyl)octanoate] as the major product in supercritical carbon dioxide by using pyridine as the b...
Addition of various polyfluoroalkyl halides including 1,2-dihalopolyfluoroalkanes to 1-octene is effected by using a catalytic amount of Cp_2TiCl_2(IV) and iron powder to give 1:1 adducts in excellent yields. The reac...
