An interesting γ-carbonyl effect permits the dual iron/boron-catalyzed direct nucleophilic substitution of functionalized primary allylic alcohols with a large variety of nucleophiles. The resulting substitution products are useful synthetic platforms for heterocycle synthesis, as illustrated in a ready access to tetrahydroisoindol-4-ones.
An efficient means for generating p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) ethers under mildly acidic conditions

The protection of a wide variety of alcohols as their p-methoxybenzyl ethers can be performed with PMBO-lepidine in the presence of methyl tosylate or, preferably, camphorsulfonic acid. No inorganic promoters are required, thereby facilitating workup and product isolation. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
