Abstract

An iridium-catalyzed directed olefinic C-H allylation and alkenylation of NH-Ts acrylamides in water provides various 1,4- and 1,3-diene skeletons. This practical and atom-economic reaction tolerated a wide scope of substrates under simple reaction conditions and enabled successful gram-scale preparation. Furthermore, an asymmetric synthesis of 1,4-dienes was achieved.
