The preparation of homoallylic alcohols by addition of organometallic allyl compounds to carbonyls is an important strategy in organic chemistry. Allylating organometallic cobalt species can be generated employing stoichiometric quantities of Zn acting as reductant. To avoid the employment of stoichiometric amount of Zn, we have developed an allylation reaction of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes promoted by photoredox catalysis in the presence of a cobalt complex, and we present herein a full account of our research. In the presence of the abundant CoBr2 (10 mol %), 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-dipyridyl (dtbbpy, 10 mol %), allyl acetate (3 equiv.), [Ir(dtbbpy)(ppy)2]PF6 (ppy=2-phenylpyridine, 2 mol %), and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (4 equiv.), an allylation of aldehydes is taking place, in moderate to good yields. Substrates scope, limitations, and photophysical investigations of this new process are reported. (Figure presented.).

A ball-milling-enabled zinc-mediated Barbier-type allylation reaction is reported. Notably, running the reaction in this manner renders it effective irrespective of the initial morphology of the zinc metal. The process is operationally simple, does not re

Efficient and mild reaction conditions for Wacker-type oxidation of terminal olefins of less explored homoallyl alcohols to β-hydroxy-methyl ketones have been developed by using a Pd(ii) catalyst and MnO2 as a co-oxidant. The method involves mild reaction conditions and shows good functional group compatibility along with high regio- and chemoselectivity. While our earlier system of PdCl2/CrO3/HCl produced α,β-unsaturated ketones from homoallyl alcohols, the present method provided orthogonally the β-hydroxy-methyl ketones. No overoxidation or elimination of benzylic and/or β-hydroxy groups was observed. The method could be extended to the oxidation of simple terminal olefins as well, to methyl ketones, displaying its versatility. An application to the regioselective synthesis of gingerol is demonstrated.
