Abstract
Linear alpha homoallylic alcohol adducts were obtained with high regioselec tivities in moderate to good yields using allylic indium reagents in the pr esence of 10 M water. The exceptionally high regioselectivities observed we re neither steric nor electronic in origin from the results presented in th is paper. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
