Abstract

The Claisen rearrangement of simple aliphatic allyl vinyl ethers catalyzed by a metalloporphyrin, Cr (TPP) Cl, is described. The porphyrin-based Lewis acid catalyst can effectively accelerate the rearrangement via a concerted [3, 3] pathway with a minimal degree of bond ionization of the substrates, providing the corresponding Claisen products in moderate to high yields and almost perfect regioselectivity at low catalyst loading.
