Abstract
Abstract Tin nano-particles are employed in the Barbier-type allylation reaction of carbonyl compounds in water to afford the corresponding homoallylic alcohols in good yields. The in situ generated allylation intermediates, allyltin(II) bromide and diallyltin dibromide, have been directly observed by using 1H NMR. A mechanism is proposed based on this observation.
