Manganese(I)‐Catalyzed Substitutive C−H Allylation

Abstract

The first manganese(I)-catalyzed C-H allylations with ample scope were achieved by carboxylate assistance. The highly selective C-H/C-O functionalizations proved viable with densely substituted allyl carbonates, and the organometallic C-H allylation strategy set the stage for expedient late-stage diversification with excellent levels of positional selectivity.
