Potassium Base-Catalyzed Michael Additions of Allylic Alcohols to α,β-Unsaturated Amides: Scope and Mechanistic Insights
Kurouchi, Hiroaki,Sai, Masahiro
supporting information, p. 3585 - 3591 (2021/06/27)
We report herein the first KHMDS-catalyzed Michael additions of allylic alcohols to α,β-unsaturated amides through allylic isomerization. The reaction proceeds smoothly in the presence of only 5 mol% of KHMDS to afford a variety of 1,5-ketoamides in high yields. Mechanistic investigations, including experimental and computational studies, reveal that the KHMDS-catalyzed in-situ generation of the enolate from the allylic alcohol through a tunneling-assisted 1,2-hydride shift is the key to the success of this transformation. (Figure presented.).
Potassium Base-Promoted Diastereoselective Synthesis of 1,3-Diols from Allylic Alcohols and Aldehydes through a Tandem Allylic-Isomerization/Aldol–Tishchenko Reaction

supporting information, p. 4053 - 4056 (2021/10/25)
This study reports the first base-promoted aldol–Tishchenko reactions of allylic alcohols with aldehydes initiated by allylic isomerization. The reaction enables the diastereoselective synthesis of a variety of 1,3-diols with three contiguous stereogenic centers. Unlike commonly reported systems, our method allows the use of readily available allylic alcohols as nucleophiles instead of enolizable aldehydes and ketones.

A one-pot iron-catalyzed conversion of allylic alcohols to α-methyl ketones has been developed. This isomerization-methylation strategy utilized a (cyclopentadienone)iron(0) carbonyl complex as precatalyst and methanol as the C1 source. A diverse range of allylic alcohols undergoes isomerization-methylation to form α-methyl ketones in good isolated yields (up to 84% isolated yield).

A new catalytic method for the denitrogenative transannulation/cyclopropanation of in-situ-generated 2-(diazomethyl)pyridines is described using a cobalt-catalyzed radical-activation mechanism. The method takes advantage of the inherent properties of a CoIII-carbene radical intermediate and is the first report of denitrogenative transannulation/cyclopropanation by a radical-activation mechanism, which is supported by various control experiments. The synthetic benefits of the metalloradical approach are showcased with a short total synthesis of (±)-monomorine.

The non-enzymatic acylative kinetic resolution of challenging aryl–alkenyl (sp2vs. sp2) substituted secondary alcohols is described, with effective enantiodiscrimination achieved using the isothiourea organocatalyst HyperBTM (1 mol %) and isobutyric anhydride. The kinetic resolution of a wide range of aryl–alkenyl substituted alcohols has been evaluated, with either electron-rich or naphthyl aryl substituents in combination with an unsubstituted vinyl substituent providing the highest selectivity (S=2–1980). The use of this protocol for the gram-scale (2.5 g) kinetic resolution of a model aryl–vinyl (sp2vs. sp2) substituted secondary alcohol is demonstrated, giving access to >1 g of each of the product enantiomers both in 99:1 e.r.

Phenanthroline and tert-butoxide have been established as powerful radical initiators in reactions such as the SRN1-type coupling reactions due to the cooperation of large heteroarenes and a special feature of tert-butoxide. The first phenanthroline-tert-butoxide-catalyzed transition-metal-free allylic isomerization is described. The resulting ketones are key intermediates for indenes. The control experiments rule out the base-promoted allylic anion pathway. The radical pathway is supported by experimental evidence that includes kinetic study, kinetic isotope effect, isotope-labeling experiments, trapping experiments, and EPR experiments.
Synthesis of Quinolines from Allylic Alcohols via Iridium-Catalyzed Tandem Isomerization/Cyclization Combined with Potassium Hydroxide
Chen, Shu-Jie,Lu, Guo-Ping,Cai, Chun
, p. 976 - 984 (2015/03/30)
A new tandem catalytic process has been established for the synthesis of quinolines. This process utilizes the [IrCp?Cl2]2/KOH catalyzed isomerization/cyclization of allylic alcohols with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol. Both the secondary and primary allylic alcohols were investigated in this catalytic system to afford different substituted quinoline derivatives in moderate to good yields. A mechanism study showed the reaction following a tandem process integrating isomerization of allylic alcohols and oxidative cyclization of 2-aminobenzyl alcohol.
Kinetic resolution of allylic alcohols via stereoselective acylation catalyzed by lipase PS-30
Chen, Peiran,Xiang, Peng
experimental part, p. 5758 - 5760 (2011/12/03)
By using lipase PS-30 as catalyst, the kinetic resolution of a series of racemic allylic alcohols has been achieved via stereoselective acylation. The value of kinetic enantiomeric ratio (E) reached up to 968. Substituent effect is briefly discussed.
Stereoselective synthesis of optically active cyclopenta[c]pyrans and cyclopenta[c]furans by the intramolecular Pauson-Khand reaction
Sezer, Serdar,Sahin, Ertan,Tanyeli, Cihangir
scheme or table, p. 476 - 485 (2010/07/04)
An intramolecular Pauson-Khand reaction of enynes derived from homoallyl, homopropargyl, and allyl alcohols is described. 2-Heteroaryl-substituted homoallyl, homopropargyl, and allyl alcohols are easily and efficiently resolved through enzymatic resolution in high ee (91-99%) and with a known stereochemistry. Each enantiomerically enriched enyne derived from homoallyl and homopropargyl alcohols affords the conformationally most stable diastereomeric cyclopenta[c]pyran ring system as the sole product, whereas enantiomerically enriched enynes derived from allyl alcohols give a diastereomeric cis:trans mixture of the cyclopenta[c]furan ring system.
[(NHC)Au1]-catalyzed rearrangement of allylic acetates

Equation Presented [(NHC)AuCl] complexes (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene), in conjunction with a silver salt, were found to efficiently catalyze the rearrangement of allylic acetates under both conventional and microwave-assisted heating. The optimization of several reaction parameters (solvent, silver salt, and ligand) as well as a study of the reaction scope are reported. The steric hindrance of the ligand bound to gold was found crucial for the outcome of the reaction as only extremely bulky ligands permitted the isomerization.
