Abstract

Palladium nanoparticles, generated in situ from palladium(II) chloride, are an efficient catalyst for the allylation of various aliphatic and aromatic amines with allyl acetates in high yields in the presence of a base without any ligand. The allylations are highly regio- and stereoselective.
