Abstract

High regioselective preparation of either the allenic alcohols or homopropargylic alcohols using the indium-mediated reaction of trialkylsilyl propargyl bromides with various aldehydes has been accomplished. By just changing the silyl groups and the reaction conditions, both the allenic and homopropargylic alcohols can be obtained in high regioselectivities.
