β¦ Synopsis
Regioselective allylmetallation of allylic alcohol has been accomplished by treatment with allylzinc in the presence of a nickel catalyst. Benzylic protective group of allyl alcohol facilitates the allylmetallation.
During the past two decades many investigations in the field of allylmetallation of alkenes using allylic Grignard reagents or zinc reagents have been reported. 1 For example, unsymmetrical allylic metal compounds added to 1-alkene are known to give the product (y--C-2) in eq. I. la We have recently shown that an ct,13unsaturated acetal undergoes rapid metallation upon treatment with allylzinc in the presence of nickel catalyst. 2
