oxidative allylic C(sp3)–H arylation by radical relay using a broad range of heteroaryl boronicacids with inexpensive and readily available unactivated terminal and internal olefins. This C(sp2)–C(sp3) allyl coupling has the advantage of using cheap, abundant, and nontoxic Cu2O without the need to use prefunctionalized alkenes, thus offering an alternative method to allylic arylation reactions that employ
Various aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds undergo smooth alkylation with cyclic allylic acetates in the presence of 10 mol% of indium trichloride under mild conditions to afford 3-substituted indoles, 2-substituted furan and pyrrole and cyclohexenyl-substituted arenes in good yields with high selectivity.

The stable, readily available molybdenum(II) complexes [Mo(CO)(4)Br-2](2) (B) and Mo(CO)(3)(MeCN)(2)(SnCl3)Cl (C) have been found to catalyze C-C bond-forming allylic substitution with electron-rich aromatics (e.g., 15 + PhOMe --> 62) and heteroaromatics (e.g., 15 + 36 --> 88) as nucleophiles under mild conditions (room temperature, 30 min-3 h). Remarkable is the para-selectivity for anisole, whereas phenol tends to favor ortho-substitution in certain instances. Mechanistic and stereochemical experiments are indicative of Lewis-acid catalysis rather than a metal template-controlled process.
