Enantioselective Allylation Using Allene, a Petroleum Cracking Byproduct

Allene (C₃H₄) gas is produced and separated on million-metric-ton scale per year during petroleum refining but is rarely employed in organic synthesis. Meanwhile, the addition of an allyl group (C₃H₅) to ketones is among the most common and prototypical reactions in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we r...
