When γ,δ-epoxy-α,β-unsaturated esters or amides were treated with 2 equiv of Grignard reagents in the presence of 10−24 mol % FeCl2, regio- and stereoselective substitution of the epoxide moiety with the Grignard reagent occurred to give exclusively δ-hydroxy-γ-alkyl or aryl-α,β-unsaturated esters or amides in good yields.

Palladium-catalysed reactions of γ,δ-epoxy-α,β-unsaturated esters and amides with NaBAr4 reagents proceeded regio- and stereoselectively, producing allylic homoallyl alcohols with aryl-substituents in the allylic position for a wide range of substrates. AsPh3 was found to be a competent ligand for the arylation reaction, whereas phosphine ligand/Lewis acidic organoboron combinations favoured the substitution
