The enantioselective fluorination of readily available cyclic allylic chlorides with AgF has been accomplished using a Pd(0) catalyst and Trost bisphosphine ligand. The reactions proceed with unprecedented ease of operation for Pd-mediated nucleophilic fluorination, allowing access to highly enantioenriched cyclic allylicfluorides that bear diverse functional groups. Evidence that supports a mechanism
Allylic carbonates are cyanated in high yields to β,γ-unsaturated carbonitriles using trimethylsilyl cyanide in the presence of a catalytic amount (5 mol %) of Pd(PPh3)4 in THF under reflux. In the reaction, cinnnamyl methyl carbonate affords cinnamyl cyanide in 98% yield. Allylicacetates also provide the corresponding carbonitriles, but often in lower yields. The cyanations of several cis- and trans-alicyclic
