Regioselective copper(I)-NHC-catalysed allylic oxidation reactions : application towards the total syntheses of biologically active molecules

The metal-catalysed allylic oxidation of alkenes has emerged as a powerful method for the functionalisation of Sp3 C-H bonds. This transformation has allowed for the expedient preparation of synthetically useful materials from hydrocarbon building blocks. With the development of air stable and envir...
