Branching out with hydrogen: Hydrogenation of symmetric or mixed carboxylic anhydrides in the presence of styrenes or activated olefins generates intermolecular hydroacylation products. The use of cationic rhodium catalysts ligated by triphenylarsine (Ph 3 As) results in the formation of branched coupling products as single regioisomers in high yields (see scheme; cod=cycloocta‐1,5‐diene, Ar F =3,5‐(CF 3 ) 2 C 6 H 3 ).
