title: Nitroalkenes as carbonyl surrogates in arylmethyl-homoallylic alcohol forming one-pot allylation reactions in water.
abstract: A simple and practical approach has been developed for conducting direct, homoallylic alcohol forming allylation reactions of nitroalkenes in water. Employing the new method, various arylmethyl-homoallylic alcohols can be produced from the corresponding, readily prepared β-nitrostyrenes.
