Group selectivity in the allylation of mixed (n-butyl)(phenyl)zinc reagent can be controlled by changing reaction parameters. CuCN-catalyzed allylation in tetrahydrofuran (THF)-hexamethylphosphoric triamide is n-butyl selective and also γ-selective in the presence of MgCl2, whereas CuI-catalyzed allylation in THF in the presence of n-Bu3P takes place with a n-butyl transfer:phenyl transfer ratio of 23:77 and an α:γ transfer ratio of phenyl of 76:24. NiCl2(Ph3P) 2-catalyzed allylation in the presence of LiCl is phenyl selective with an α:γ ratio of 65:35. The reaction of methyl- or n-butyl(aryl)zinc reagents with an allylic electrophile in THF at room temperature in the presence of NiCl2(Ph3P)2 catalyst and LiCl as an additive provides an atom-economic alternative to aryl-allyl coupling using diarylzincs.
