I. Beltaief et al., A new and efficient method for the isomerization of secondary functional allylic alcohols into their primary isomers, SYNTHESIS-S, (12), 1998, pp. 1765-1768
The first efficient tandem: "bromination-formylation-hydrolysis" for the 1,
3-transposition of acyclic allylic alcohols 1 and 2 bearing a nitrile and a
n ester group is reported.
