Abstract

Treatment of cinnamyl methyl ether with phenylmagnesium bromide in ether in the presence of CoCl 2 [1,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)pentane] affords 1,3-diphenylpropene in good yield. Similar allylic substitution reaction with trimethylsilylmethylmagnesium chloride proceeded smoothly to yield homoallylsilanes. α,β-Unsaturated aldehyde acetal also underwent allylic substitution.
