摘要

Two convenient highly diastereoselective protocols for the allylation and crotylation of ketones using practical, air- and water-stable potassium allyl and crotyltrifluoroborate salts have been developed. BF(3)center dot OEt(2) and montmorillonite clay are used as catalysts to promote additions. The montmorillonite-catalyzed method in particular is very robust, providing a straightforward and scalable method for the allylation and crotylation of a range of ketones and aldehydes.
