o-Alkenyl or alkynyl benzylzirconocene intermediate, which was readily generated by the reaction of 2-alkoxymethyl-styrene or 2-alkoxymethyl-1-(trimethylsilylethynyl)-benzene derivative with zirconocene-butene complex (Negishi reagent, "Cp2Zr"), reacted with allyl or propargyl halides in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuCl to give allylation or allenylation products. Conversion to Dane's diene, which is a key intermediate for estrone synthesis, was efficiently carried out by enyne olefin metathesis of the allylation products.
