Abstract

C-O bond cleavage of allylic alkyl ether was realized in a Pd-catalyzed hydrogen-bond-activated allylic alkylation using only alcohol solvents. This procedure does not require any additives and proceeds with high regioselectivity. The applicability of this transformation to a variety of functionalized allylic ether substrates was also investigated. Furthermore, this methodology can be easily extended to the asymmetric synthesis of enantiopure products (99% ee).
