Method for hydrogenolysis of halides

The invention discloses a method for hydrogenolysis of halides. The invention discloses a preparation method of a compound represented by a formula I. The preparation method comprises the following step: in a polar aprotic solvent, zinc, H2O and a compound represented by a formula II are subjected to a reaction as shown in the specification, wherein X is halogen; Y is -CHRR or R; hydrogenin H2O exists in the form of natural abundance or non-natural abundance. According to the preparation method, halide hydrogenolysis can be simply, conveniently and efficiently achieved through a simple and mild reaction system, and good functional group compatibility and substrate universality are achieved.

Synthesis of 1-Arylalk-2-enes and 1-Arylalkanes via Friedel-Crafts Alkylation with Allylic Alcohols Catalysed by an Acidic Clay

Moderately activated benzenoid compounds undergo alkylation with allylic alcohols in the presence of acidic K10 clay to give almost exclusively 1-arylalk-2-enes by attack at the terminal position of the intermediate allyl cation; catalytic hydrogenation yields the corresponding 1-arylalkanes.
