Abstract
Herein, we have demonstrated a palladium-catalyzed regioselective allylation of unactivated alkenes with vinylcyclopropanes assisted by weak-coordinating native amides. The reaction exhibits wide substrate scope and excellent β-selectivity. Substrate diversification was performed to demonstrate the synthetic utility of the reaction. Mechanistic investigations were carried out to provide an insight into the reaction mechanism.
