Poly{[4-(hydroxy)(tosyloxy)iodo]styrene} was efficient in the halotosyloxylation
reaction of alkynes with iodine or NBS or NCS. The polymer reagent could be
regenerated and reused.

A highly stereoselective Rh(I)-catalyzed 1,3-acetoxyl rearrangement of
1,2-allen-3-yl carboxylates leads to 2-acetoxy-1,3(E)-alkadienes.
Features of the reaction are a high catalytic efficiency, broad scope and
excellent E-selectivity.
