Abstract

Among allylic alcohols, but-3-en-2-ol is most rapidly isomerized to give butan-2-one in the presence of Ir(ClO4)(CO)(PPh3)2 while 2-methylprop-2-en-1-ol most rapidly undergoes the isomerization to give 2-methylpropanal in the presence of Rh(ClO4)(CO)(PPh3)2 at room temperature under hydrogen.
