Abstract

Abstract A new approach for the synthesis of homoallylic alcohols and amines directly from alcohols via one-pot sequential oxidation–Barbier reaction and oxidation–condensation– Barbier reactions, respectively, is reported. The protocol involves the one-pot ferric chloride- catalyzed oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes with chloramine-T followed by indium-mediated Barbier allylation with allyl bromide to afford homoallylic alcohols in ...
