45. The choice of a monometallic palladium(II)-catalyzed system might limit the scope of usable benzoic acids to activated orthosubstituted benzoic acids.

47. Recently, a catalytic asymmetric decarboxylative Mannich-type reaction was reported in which the nucleophile was generated via CuI-catalyzed decarboxylation of cyanocarboxylic acids. The reaction occured without detection of any homocoupled product as a result of carbopalladation of the cyanide substituent, thus indicating that copper might be a poor catalyst for our carboxylic-acid-into-ketone transformation.
