Abstract:Here, we report the development of cobalt(I)‐catalyzed regioselective allylic alkylation reactions of tertiary allyl carbonates with 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds. A family of well‐defined tetrahedral cobalt(I) complexes bearing commercially available bidentate bis(phosphine) ligands [(P,P)Co(PPh3)Cl] are synthesized and explored as catalysts in allylic alkylation reactions. The catalyst [(dppp)Co(PPh3)Cl] (dppp = 1,3‐Bis(diphenylphosphino)propane) enables the alkylation of a large variety of tertiary allyl carbona… Show more
