Friedel–Crafts-Type Allylation of Nitrogen-Containing Aromatic Compounds with Allylic Alcohols Catalyzed by a [Mo<sub>3</sub>S<sub>4</sub>Pd(η<sup>3</sup>-allyl)] Cluster
the Friedel–Crafts-type allylic alkylation of nitrogen-containing aromaticcompounds catalyzed by a [Mo3S4Pd(η3-allyl)] cluster is achieved. With a 3 mol % catalyst loading in acetonitrile at reflux or 60 °C, a variety of N,N-dialkylanilines and indoles reacted smoothly with allylic alcohols to afford the Friedel–Crafts-type allylation products in good to excellent yields with high levels of regioselectivity
