One-pot terminal alkene homologation using a tandem olefin cross-metathesis/allylic carbonate reduction sequence

Abstract

A one-carbon homologation of terminal alkenes has been developed utilizing an olefin cross-metathesis followed by a palladium-mediated allylic carbonate reduction; various substrates were used to demonstrate the scope of the reaction, with yields ranging from 65 to 86%.
