- Asymmetric palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation using dialkylzinc reagents: A remarkable ligand effect
-
A serendipitously discovered palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction with diorganozinc reagents, which displays broad functional group compatibility, is reported. This novel transformation hinges on a remarkable ligand effect which overrides the standard "umpolung" reactivity of allyl-palladium intermediates in the presence of dialkylzincs. Owing to its mild conditions, enantioselective allylic alkylations of racemic allylic electrophiles are possible in the presence of sensitive functional groups. Umpole-me-not: A serendipitously discovered palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction with diorganozinc reagents displays broad functional group compatibility. This novel transformation hinges on a remarkable ligand effect which overrides the standard "umpolung" reactivity of allyl-palladium intermediates in the presence of dialkylzinc compounds.

- Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of allylic fluorides
-
The enantioselective fluorination of readily available cyclic allylic chlorides with AgF has been accomplished using a Pd(0) catalyst and Trost bisphosphine ligand. The reactions proceed with unprecedented ease of operation for Pd-mediated nucleophilic fluorination, allowing access to highly enantioenriched cyclic allylic fluorides that bear diverse functional groups. Evidence that supports a mechanism in which C-F bond formation occurs by an SN2-type attack of fluoride on a Pd(II)-allyl intermediate is presented.

- PALLADIUM-CATALYZED CROSS COUPLING OF ALLYL HALIDES WITH ORGANOTIN REAGENTS: A METHOD OF JOINING HIGHLY FUNCTIONALIZED PARTNERS REGIOSELECTIVELY AND STEREOSPECIFICALLY.
-
The palladium-catalyzed reaction of allyl halides with aryl- and vinyltin reagents gives high yields of cross-coupled products. In the presence of 1-3 atm of carbon monoxide, ketones are obtained, resulting from cross coupling accompanied by carbon monoxide insertion. The reaction is mild and tolerant of a wide variety of functionalities (OH, OR, CN, CO//2R, CHO) on either the allyl chloride or the tin reagent. Coupling at the allyl halide partner proceeds with inversion of configuration at the carbon bearing the halide, with retention of geometry at the allylic double bond, and with a regioselectivity for the least-substituted carbon in the allylic framework. Retention of double-bond geometry is observed in the vinyltin partner.
