Alkene hydroformylation is the largest volume application of homogeneous metal catalysis
and the prototypical example of hydrogen-mediated CÀC bond formation.[1] Remarkably …

Alkene and alkyne hydroacylation reactions are archetypal examples of simple addition
processes that display excellent atom economy.[1] Both reactions result in the formation of a …

The hydroacylation of multiple bonds is a highly versatile reaction that uses abundant
starting materials such as alkenes and aldehydes for the formation of valuable ketone …

Adding benzoic acid and aniline as cocatalysts to the RhI/2‐amino‐3‐picoline catalyzed
hydroacylation of alkenes with aldehydes to give ketones results in a remarkable …

A Rh‐catalyst system based on the asymmetric ligand tBu2PCH2P (o‐C6H4OMe) 2 is
reported that allows for the hydroacylation of challenging internal alkenes with β‐substituted …

Aldehyde umpolung, the inversion of the electrophilicity of the carbonyl group into a
nucleophile, has its origins in Wohler and Liebig's 1832 paper describing the cyanide …

We report a protocol for the hydroacylation of vinylphenols with aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl
aldehydes to form branched products with high selectivity. This cross‐coupling yields α‐aryl …
