Application

Acrolein diethyl acetal is widely used to carry out chemoselective Heck arylation to synthesize either 3-arylpropanoate esters or cinnamaldehyde derivatives.

It can also be used as one of the precursors to synthesize natural products like (−)-(Z)-Deoxypukalide, (−)-Laulimalide, botryodiplodin, neolaulimalide and isolaulimalide.
