title: Regioselective Heck arylation of unsaturated alcohols by palladium catalysis in ionic liquid.
abstract: In contrast to almost all of the known examples of Heck arylation of unsaturated alcohols, which yield predominately beta-arylated products, arylation under the Pd-DPPP catalysis in ionic liquid leads preferentially to aryl substitution at the alpha carbon, providing an easy pathway to this valuable class of olefins.
