The lithium cation-catalyzed direct reduction of allylic alcohols to alkenes using isopropanol as a hydride donor was developed. The hydride transfer of the in situ-generated lithium isopropoxide to an allylic cation is the key process in this transformation. The reaction generates only water and acetone as byproducts, which highlights the synthetic utility of this method. (Figure presented.).

Iron chloride has been found to be an efficient catalyst for the disproportionation of allylic alcohols, which provides a convenient method for selective transformation of allylic alcohols to alkenes and α,β- unsaturated ketones. Furthermore, this catalytic system is also effective for highly selective allylic reduction of allylic alcohols, allylic ethers, and allylic acetates with benzyl alcohol under neutral and convenient reaction conditions.
