M. Sakakibara et A. Ogawa, PD-CATALYZED ALLYLIC ALKYLATION OF PHENYLVINYLCARBINOLS WITH SOME NUCLEOPHILES, Tetrahedron letters, 35(43), 1994, pp. 8013-8014
Allylic alkylation of phenylvinylcarbinols with various nucleophiles p
roceeded smoothly under mild reaction conditions in the presence of Pd
(PPh(3))(4) providing an efficient methodology for the synthesis of es
trogens and their analogs.
