Representative Procedure for the Preparation of r-Ally-
lated r,β-Unsaturated Amides. To a dry V-shaped vial fitted with a
stirring bar were added allyl tert-butyl carbonate (31.6 mg, 0.20 mmol)
and N-benzyl-N-(3-hydroxy-5-phenylpent-1-yn-1-yl)-4-methylbenze-
nesulfonamide (167.8 mg, 0.40 mmol), and the vial was flushed with

3
DPPM (2.3 mg, 0.006 mmol) were dissolved in dry DCE (0.2 mL) and
stirred for 10 min. The freshly made palladium catalyst solution was
transferred into the V-shaped vial through cannula. Catalyst OdV-
(OSiPh3)3 (0.9 mg, 0.001 mmol) was added, and the vial was then sealed
with a Teflon cap under an argon stream and heated at 80 °C for 16 h.
The crude reaction mixture was then subjected to a silica gel column
using dichloromethane/petroleum ether (2:1) as an eluent to afford
2-allyl-N-benzyl-5-phenyl-N-tosylpent-2-enamide (78.0 mg, 85% yield,
E:Z = 2:1) as a colorless oil. Due to the existence of two isomers, two sets
of NMR signals were observed. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.63 (d,
J = 8.3 Hz, 2H), 7.54 (d, J = 8.3 Hz, 2H), 7.22ꢀ7.09 (m, 20H), 7.03 (dd,
