Abstract

In the presence of IMes-Cu catalyst, a tandem hydrocupration/allylation of alkenyl boronates with allyl phosphate efficiently proceeds in the presence of a hydrosilane via in situ generated Β-α-copper intermediates. Mono- and disubstituted alkenyl boronates were effective in the reaction with terminal allyl phosphates, but trisubstituted substrates showed limited reactivity.
