The PPh3/CBr4-catalyzed isomerization of 2-aromatic allylic alcohols into the corresponding saturated aldehydes or ketones has been achieved at room temperature in good to excellent yields under mild and metal-free conditions. This new methodology has been applied successfully to the synthesis of ibuprofen in four steps.

The 2,3,4,4a,5,6-hexahydro-1H-benzofuroisoquinoline-7(7aH)-one ring system is prepared from a 4-arylpyridine precursor by sequential intramolecular enolate addition to a pyridinium ion, Dieckmann cyclization, and catalytic hydrogenation.
