Abstract
Indium mediated coupling of allylic bromide with acyloyl-imidazoles or pyrazoles in aqueous media gives the corresponding tertiary alcohols or ketones in good yield. The reaction provides a facile regioselectiv e synthesis of beta,gamma-unsaturated ketones and its usefulness is de monstrated by the synthesis of the monoterpene artemesia ketone.
