Article Abstract

A Rh-catalyzed C(sp)-H propenylation has been reported by taking -allyl benzimidazole as an allylamine congener. This transformation has been observed for the first time, where a tandem process of C-H allylation followed by alkene isomerization delivers a highly stereoselective -propenylated product. Detailed mechanistic studies including the characterization of rhodacycle-intermediates have been conducted to understand the mechanism.
