β-Branched alkylated alcohols have been prepared in good yields using a double-hydrogen autotransfer strategy in the presence of our diaminocyclopentadienone iron tricarbonyl complex Fe1. The alkylation of some 2-arylethanol derivatives was successfully addressed with benzylic alcohols and methanol as alkylating reagents under mild conditions. Deuterium labeling experiments suggested that both alcohols (2-arylethanol and either methanol or benzyl alcohol) served as hydrogen donors in this cascade process.

The synthesis of cis-1-ethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydro-4-(phenylmethyl)pyranoindole-1-acetic acid, pemedolac (USAN), is described.This compound has been found to be a potent analgesic agent in primary screening.Pemedolac has been resolved and the active (+)-enantiomer assigned a 1S,4R absolute configuration on the basis of a crystallographic analysis of its (S)-(-)-borneol ester.
