A New Preparative Method for Allylic Indium(III) Reagents by Reductive Transmetalation of pi-Allylpalladium(II) with Indium(I) Salts

Org Lett. 2000 Mar 23;2(6):847-849. doi: 10.1021/ol005610i.

Abstract

A reductive transmetalation of the pi-allylpalladium(II) complexes, generated in situ from a catalytic amount of a palladium(0) complex and a variety of allylic substrates, with indium(I) salts proceeded smoothly in various solvents, providing a new route for allylindium(III) reagents.
