General description

Cinnamyl chloride reacts regioselectively with aryl and alkenylgold(I) phosphanes in the presence of palladium catalyst in THF to afford the α-substitution product†.

Application

Cinnamyl chloride was used in the enantioselective total synthesis of helioporins C and E, bioactive marine diterpenes[1].

    A short and enantioselective total synthesis of helioporins C and E, which are bioactive marine diterpenes containing a serrulatane or amphilectane skeleton, was elaborated. The chirogenic step, i.e. a Cu(I)-catalyzed allylic alkylation of a cinnamyl chloride with methylmagnesium bromide, proceeded
