The ruthenium-catalyzedallylation of aldehydes with allylic acetates has been expanded to incorporate substituents at the 2-position of the allylic components. Allylic acetates bearing a variety of substituents (CO2-t-Bu, COMe, Ph, CH(OEt)2, and Me) undergo high-yielding additions with aromatic, α,β-unsaturated, and aliphatic aldehydes. The conditions of the reaction were found to be mild (75 °C,
A novel synthetic method for γ-butyrolactones is presented. The process involves high regioselectivity to afford γ-lactones. In cases of trichloroacetates of secondary allylic alcohols, high cis-selective cyclization is accomplished.

generated in liquid sulphurdioxide from 2-methylallyl iodide and silver trichloroacetate in the presence of cyclopentadiene, cyclohexadiene, and furan. Some new bridged seven-membered ring olefins, 3-methylbicyclo[3,2,1]octa-2,6-diene, 3-methylenebicyclo[3,2,1]oct-6-ene, 3-methylbicyclo-[3,2,2]nona-2,6-diene, have been isolated, and it is suggested that they arise from a concerted cycloaddition of the allylic

Careful reading of a published article uncovered a specious structural assignment, which has so far remained unchallenged. An alternate structure has been suggested and the experimental procedure repeated. Subsequently, a more rigorous analytical characterization confirmed the true structure to be a cyclic dimer of the structure proposed in the original paper, thereby negating their singular claim of an otherwise unobserved type of 6-endo cyclization.
A curable composition comprises (A) a polymer whose molecules have a main chain comprising carbon-carbon bonds and one or more isocyanatocarbonyl groups pendant to the main chain, the content of the isocyanatocarbonyl groups per polymer molecule being from 0.1 to 72.2% by weight, and (B) an active hydrogen atom-containing compound. Various polymers of the given type, including polymers having pendant isocyanatocarbonyl and/or isocyanato groups, are novel.
