Regioselectivity in the palladium-catalysed allylic alkylation of 1-arylprop-2-enyl acetates [ArCH(OAc)CH=CH2] or (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enyI acetate (PhCH=CHCH2OAc) with sodium enolates of soft carbon nucleophiles is controlled by addition of a catalytic amount of lithium iodide to give lienar products [(E)-ArCH=CHCH2Nu] exclusively; their branch isomers [ArCH(Nu)CH=CH2] were not detected.
