Application

Allyl chloride can be used as a reactant to prepare:
  • 1-Allyl-2-alkynylbenzene derivatives through allylalkynylation of in situ generated benzynes.
  • α,ω-Difunctional intermediates by reacting with fatty acid methyl esters using ruthenium catalysts.
  • Homoallylic alcohols through Sn/I2 catalyzed Barbier-type allylation reactions of carbonyl compounds.

Other Notes

The article number A30702-4X1L will be discontinued. Please order the single bottle A30702-1L which is physically identical with the same exact specifications.
