Branched-Selective, Catalytic Allene Hydrocarbonation Enabled by Ir(I)/d F ppe Complexes

The direct addition of C–H bonds across allenes represents an attractive strategy for the construction of allylic frameworks, but controlling the selectivity remains a major challenge. In this Synpacts article, we summarize the development of an Ir(I) catalytic system featuring a perfluorinated bisphosphine ligand, d F...
