This paper described a general method to obtain α-adduct homoallylic alcohols using indium, zinc, and tin in water. A new mechanism was proposed to account for the formation of these synthetically difficult-to-obtain molecules. Generally, this method can
The first In(OTf)3-catalyzed conversion of kinetically formed homoallylic alcohols into the thermodynamically preferred regioisomers: Application to the synthesis of 22α-sterols

A retro-ene reaction that generates the parent aldehyde and a sigmatropic rearrangement are involved in the In(OTf)3-catalyzed conversion of homoallylic alcohols 1 into the thermodynamically favored regioisomers 2. This method can be used for the stereocontrolled synthesis of linear homoallylic 22α-sterols from their readily accessible branched 22β isomers.
