AlkenesQ 0083 Palladium-Catalyzed Hydrophenylation of Alkynes with Sodium Tetraphenyl-

borate under Mild Conditions. — The method offers an efficient approach to styrene and polyphenylalkene derivatives and proceeds in most cases with high regio- and stereoselectivity. Hydrophenylation of 1,3-diynes is also possible giving mixtures of single and/or double phenylated products. — (ZENG, H.; HUA*, R.; J. Org. Chem. 73 (2008) 2, 558-562; Dep.
