    Abstract

    Silyl enol ethers prepared from saturated ketones and aldehydes can be converted to α,β-unsaturated ketones and aldehydes by the reaction of allyl carbonate in the presence of palladium-phosphine complexes as a catalyst. The selection of solvent is crucial and nitriles are most effective as the solvent.
