[Rh(cod)(2)]BF(4), serves as an effective catalyst for asymmetric isomerizations of allylic alcohols to aldehydes, furnishing improved yields, scope, and enantioselectivities relative to previously reported methods. The catalyst is air-stable and can be recovered at the end of the reaction. Mechanistic studies establish that the isomerization proceeds via an intramolecular 1,3-hydrogen migration and that

γ-disubstituted and β,γ-disubstituted allylicalcohols were prepared and successfully hydrogenated using suitable N,P-based Ir complexes. High yields and excellent enantioselectivities were obtained for most of the substrates studied. This investigation also revealed the effect of the acidity of the N,P–Ir-complexes on the acid-sensitive allylicalcohols. DFT ΔpKa calculations were used to explain the effect of
