Decarboxylative alkylation of alkenes
Decarboxylative alkylation of alkenes Nature, Published online: 29 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10463-1 A Pd-catalysed method enables regio- and diastereoselective C–H alkylation of diverse alkenes using carboxyli…
Why it matters
The timing matters: alkylation is converging with shifts in alkenes, which could amplify the downstream impact.
