Cp2TiCl2-catalyzed regioselective hydrocarboxylation of alkenes with CO2 to give carboxylic acids in high yields has been developed in the presence of iPrMgCl. The reaction proceeds with a wide range of alkenes under mild conditions. Styrene and its derivatives can transform to α-aryl carboxylic acids, and aliphatic alkenes can transform to form alkanoic acids.
