Abstract

Abstract By employing ligands in the Pd II-mediated arylative isomerization of allyl alcohols, a milder and regioselective access to the versatile building blocks β-aryl aldehydes and ketones was developed. This new and chelation-controlled protocol enabled the compatibility of wide range of functionalities to generate dihydrochalcones, α-benzyl-α′- alkyl acetones, dihydrocinnamaldehydes, and α-benzyl β-keto esters (from Baylis–Hillman ...
