Transition-Metal-Free Reductive Coupling of 1,3-Butadienes with Aldehydes Catalyzed by Dibutyliodotin Hydride

Reductive Coupling of Allenoates with Aldehydes Catalyzed by Halogenotin Hydride

Hydrostannylation of allenoate 1 with halogenotin hydride (Bu2SnClH) was developed to give allylic stannane (I), which then could react with aldehyde 2. The same coupling gave allylic alcohol 3 under...

Direct use of 1,3-dienes for the allylation of ketones via catalytic hydroindation

In this study, in situ catalytically generated allylic indium from 1,3 dienes and InCl₂H was developed for use in the allylation of ketones.

Catalytic Annulation of Epoxides with Heterocumulenes by the Indium-Tin System

In the synthesis of five-membered heterocycles by the annulation of epoxides with heterocumulenes such as carbon dioxide and isocyanates, we developed the indium-tin catalytic system and synthesized various cyclic adducts including novel types products under mild reaction conditions.
