The palladium-catalyzed three-component coupling of (chloromethyl)arenes or (chloromethyl)heteroarenes, allytrimethoxysilane, and carbon dioxide (carboxylative Hiyama coupling reaction) was successfully conducted to produce α,β-unsaturated esters in satisfactory to good yields. The carboxylative Hiyama coupling reaction proceeded smoothly under mild conditions in the presence of palladium nanoparticles through the formation of π-allylpalladium chloride intermediates.
