Abstract

Abstract A new direct allylation of the aromatic compound has been developed. A combination of allylsilane, allylgermane, or allylstannane and thallium (III) trifluoroacetate gave rise to an allyl cationic species which was allowed to react with an aromatic compound, a nucleophile, to give allylation product (s) in good yields.
