A new tandem catalytic process has been established for the synthesis of quinolines. This process utilizes the [IrCp?Cl2]2/KOH catalyzed isomerization/cyclization of allylic alcohols with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol. Both the secondary and primary allylic alcohols were investigated in this catalytic system to afford different substituted quinoline derivatives in moderate to good yields. A mechanism study showed the reaction following a tandem process integrating isomerization of allylic alcohols and oxidative cyclization of 2-aminobenzyl alcohol.

The non-enzymatic acylative kinetic resolution of challenging aryl–alkenyl (sp2vs. sp2) substituted secondary alcohols is described, with effective enantiodiscrimination achieved using the isothiourea organocatalyst HyperBTM (1 mol %) and isobutyric anhydride. The kinetic resolution of a wide range of aryl–alkenyl substituted alcohols has been evaluated, with either electron-rich or naphthyl aryl substituents in combination with an unsubstituted vinyl substituent providing the highest selectivity (S=2–1980). The use of this protocol for the gram-scale (2.5 g) kinetic resolution of a model aryl–vinyl (sp2vs. sp2) substituted secondary alcohol is demonstrated, giving access to >1 g of each of the product enantiomers both in 99:1 e.r.
Iridium-catalyzed C-3 allylation of indoles with allylic alcohols promoted by a bronsted acid

A highly regioselective method has been developed for the allylation of indoles with an iridium catalyst. This regioselective procedure uses allylic alcohols directly as allylating agents in the presence of a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid. A wide rang
