Pd-catalyzed addition of ArX (X= Br, I) is known to result in mixtures of
regioisomers when olefins are used that contain electrron-donating substituents.
My project involves the reaction of these halides with allyl alcohol to give
3-arylpropanals. Is anyone familiar with any recent references on varying the
reaction conditions (halide, catalyst, etc) to minimize or eliminate this side
product formation? Thank you in advance!
