Products from DcA of carboxylic acids^a,b,c.

^aReactions were performed on 0.2 mmol scale.

^bIsolated yields are shown.

^c(Yields) were determined by q¹H NMR with pyridine as the internal standard for products that were found to be volatile.

^dYields are an average of two reactions.

^e95% pure, see ESI for details.

^fProduct was isolated with alkane side product and mass adjusted; product previously used in thermal DcA.¹⁷
