A novel Pd(II)-catalyzed ortho-C−H olefination protocol has been developed using spatially remote, unprotected tertiary, secondary, and primary alcohols as the directing groups. Mono-N-protected amino acid ligands were found to promote reaction, an array of olefin coupling partners could be used. When electron-deficient alkenes used, resulting olefinated intermediates underwent subsequent oxidative intramolecular cyclization give corresponding pyran products, which converted into...

Rh(III)-catalyzed meta-C–H functionalization reactions are still rare. Herein, we report the first example of alkenylation with disubstituted alkynes directed by a U-shaped nitrile template. Exclusive regio-selectivity has been achieved using unsymmetrical aryl and alkyl-disubstituted to afford synthetically valuable trisubstituted olefins. Propargyl alcohols also compatible, affording complex allylic alcohols. Notably, transition metal-catalyzed meta-alkenylation not successful Pd catalysts.
