Gold(I)-catalysed direct allylic etherifications have been successfully carried out with chirality transfer to yield enantioenriched, γ-substituted secondary allylic ethers. Our investigations include a full substrate-scope screen to ascertain substituent effects on the regioselectivity, stereoselectivity and efficiency of chirality transfer, as well as control experiments to elucidate the mechanistic subtleties of the chirality-transfer process. Crucially, addition of molecular sieves was found to be necessary to ensure efficient and general chirality transfer. Computational studies suggest that the efficiency of chirality transfer is linked to the aggregation of the alcohol nucleophile around the reactive π-bound Au-allylic ether complex. With a single alcohol nucleophile, a high degree of chirality transfer is predicted. However, if three alcohols are present, alternative proton transfer chain mechanisms that Erode the efficiency of chirality transfer become competitive.

An iron-catalyzed Kumada-type cross-coupling reaction of propargyl halides with alkylmagnesium reagents is described. The reaction is fast, takes place in smooth conditions, tolerates several functional groups that would be able to react with the Grignard reagent, and may afford either allene or propargyl coupling derivatives. Factors involved in the observed regioselectivity have been studied.

The cobalt-catalyzed carboxylation of propargyl acetates with CO2 (1 atm) is described. The reaction proceeds at room temperature in the presence of Mn powder as a reducing reagent. Various propargyl acetates are converted to the corresponding carboxylic acids in good to high yields.
