Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Ester‐directed olefination of acrylates <italic>via</italic> rhodium(III)‐catalysis was developed. Various alkenes were reacted with acrylates to give the desired products in high stereoselectivity. Mechanistic investigations revealed that ester‐directed CH bond activation was the key step to this reaction.</p> <p> <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"> <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh5bw951" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /> </boxed-text> </p> </abstract>
