Abstract

Nickel (0) triethyl phosphite complex-promoted reaction of allylic acetates with thiols produced allylic sulfides with retention of configuration without allylic rearrangement. A similar reaction of allylic acetates with alcohols and phenols also proceeded with retention of regio-and stereochemistry.
