Utilisation of CO <sub>2</sub> in the simultaneous installation of the C–C and CC bonds of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids
Exploiting the ability of phosphonium ylides both to activate CO 2 and to form new CC bonds, a Wittig CO 2 utilisation strategy has enabled a very direct and regioselective means of synthesising α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids.
