Hydrosilylation of allyl alcohol with [HSiMe2OSiO1.5]8: octa (3-hydroxypropyldimethylsiloxy) octasilsesquioxane and its octamethacrylate derivative as potential precursors to hybrid nanocomposites.

Partial oxidation of alcohols is a topic of great interest in the field of gold catalysis. In this work, we provide evidence that the partial oxidation of allyl alcohol to its corresponding aldehyde, acrolein, over oxygen-precovered gold surfaces occurs via
Deoxydehydration of glycerol to allyl alcohol catalyzed by rhenium derivatives.

The first example of Ir-catalyzed asymmetric substitution reaction with vinyl trifluoroborates is described. The direct reaction between branched, racemic allylic alcohols and potassium alkenyltrifluoroborates proceeded with high site selectivity and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99%) mediated by an Ir-(P,olefin) complex.

The mechanism of the palladium-catalyzed synthesis of allylic silanes and boronates from allylic alcohols was investigated. (1)H, (29)Si, (19)F, and (11)B NMR spectroscopy was used to reveal key intermediates and byproducts of the silylation reaction. The tetrafluoroborate counterion of the
