• electrophile [8][10][11]. This paper describes in full detail the racemic system using allylic carbonates. The allylic cross-coupling of aromatic aldehydes and allylic carbonates with a silylboronate by the merging of a copper–N-heterocyclic carbene catalyst and a palladium–bisphosphine catalyst produced
