title: Stereoselective synthesis of 1,4-bifunctional compounds by regioselective Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution reaction.
abstract: [reaction: see text] Highly stereoselective synthesis of 1,4-bifunctional compounds was accomplished via 1,2-asymmetric induction to alpha-oxyaldehyde followed by regio- and diastereoselective Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution reaction.
