Abstract

Abstract Various propargylic and allenic aluminum reagents have been easily prepared by a direct insertion of aluminum into propargylic bromides in the presence of PbCl 2 (1 mol%). These organoaluminum reagents react with carbonyl compounds to afford the corresponding allenic alcohols or homopropargylic alcohols in good to excellent yields with high regio-and diastereoselectivity.
