Applications of Palladium‐Mediated Eliminations in Natural Product Synthesis

This review presents and examines a selection of case studies that showcase powerful and enabling applications of palladium-mediated elimination-type transformations in facilitating the synthesis of structurally diverse natural products and related targets. Classes of reactions include palladium-catalyzed dehydrohalogenations (encompassing asymmetric variants), and reductive stereoselective allylic transpositions, all of which typically proceed under mild conditions.
