Abstract
The stereoselective oxidative rearrangement of disubstituted unactivated olefins has been achieved using a hypervalent iodine(III) reagent. The aryl group undergoes 1,2-migration to give tert-α-arylated aldehydes (as acetals). The preparation of these aldehydes/acetals, especially containing a tert-benzylic stereocenter, has remained challenging. This migration-based method provides a complementary approach over the known α-substitution-based methods for accessing this class of molecules.
