General description

Acrolein dimethyl acetal undergoes cationic α-diimine palladium chelate catalyzed copolymerization with ethene to yield branched copolymers.

Application

Acrolein dimethyl acetal was used in the facile one step synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal and its dimethyl acetal via a cross-metathesis reaction with octen-3-ol.

Acrolein dimethyl acetal (ADMA) can be copolymerized with ethene using a cationic alpha-diimine palladium chelate catalyst to yield branched copolymers. Catalyst deactivation occurs via methanol elimination to give an inert eta3-1-methoxyallyl palladium species. This process can be retarded by the

The facile one step synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal and its dimethyl acetal via a cross-metathesis reaction between commercially available octen-3-ol and acrolein or its dimethyl acetal is reported. The method was extended to the synthesis of C6 and C12 4-hydroxy-2E-enals, their
