Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Transformation of C(sp3)–X Bonds

During the last 50 years, the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reactions underwent continuous development. Apart from carbonylation of aromatic (pseudo)-halide and alkene (C-sp2) compounds, the use of C(sp3)–X compounds such as allyl compounds, benzyl compounds, and aliphatic alkanes have become the most useful tool for the synthesis of β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, aliphatic carboxylic acid, and their derivatives. The recently budding development in the area of palladium-catalyzed C(sp3)–X (especially X = H) activation makes us feel it necessary to file a summary on the past, current contributions, and a prospective outlook on the palladium-catalyzed carbonylative transformation of C(sp3)–X bonds, which is the focus of this review.
