Abstract

Highly regio-and stereoselective allylation of aldehydes by allenes proceeds smoothly in aqueous/organic media in the presence of PdCl2 (PPh3) 2, HCl, and SnCl2. The reaction likely occurs via hydrostannylation of allenes and allylation of aldehydes by the in situ generated allyltrichlorotins to afford the final products.
