Iodine (III)-Mediated Allylation of Aromatic Compounds and Alcohols Using Allylmetal (Group IVb) Compounds

抄録

The reaction of allylmetal (group IVb) compounds with aromatic compounds and iodosylbenzene in the presence of BF₃-Et₂O afforded the corresponding allylation products. Allylation of alcohols was also carried out to give allyl ethers. The activation of iodosylbenzene by the coordination of BF₃-Et₂O was assumed to be one of the most important factors for the reaction. The involvement of the reactive allyliodine (III) compounds in these reactions is discussed.
