of allylic alkylation reactions involving hard nucleophiles remains a significant challenge and continues to be an active area of research. The lack of general methods in which α-alkylation is favored underscores the need for the development of new processes for achieving this type of selectivity. We report that Cu(I) catalyzes the allylic substitution of phosphorothioate esters with excellent α-regioselectivity

A mild two-step process for the regioselective, transition-metal-free preparation of carbon-carbon bonds from allylic alcohols/ethers and Grignardreagents is described. This process obviates the need for the harsh deprotection conditions usually required for removal of methyl ethers. The synthesis is accomplished by photochemically promoted allylic substitution reactions of allylic alcohols and ethers

The synthesis of allylic thioethers arising from the reaction between phosphorothioate esters and alcohols is described. The synthesis is accomplished in one step by the addition of an exogenous alkoxide to the corresponding allylic phosphorothioate ester. It is demonstrated that this process is amenable to various functional groups and a wide variety of heterocycles. In contrast to conventional methods
